✨ NAME ✨

xe_bo_restore_pinned — the girlypop that restores a pinned VRAM object 💅

  • bo — the buffer object we're moving. that's the vibe, she's the main character here 👑

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so like, on successful completion, the object memory will be moved back to VRAM. literally just moved back. slay. ✨

and why do we even need this? because there's special handling for pinned VRAM objects during suspend-resume, and this is the little function that handles it. it's giving "i'm the responsible one in the group chat" energy fr fr 🧚
