xe_display_probe(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is the xe_display_probe(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally about one thing: xe_display_probe — probe display and create display struct. that's the whole assignment. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the vibe check is one function:

int xe_display_probe (struct xe_device *xe );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• xe — the XE device instance, aka the main character of this call 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

it initializes all the fields used by the display part. no cap, that's the job, and it slays. ✨

there's a TODO note in the source, and it is giving future-plans energy:

TODO: once everything can be inside a single struct, make the struct opaque to the rest of xe and return it to be xe->display.

💖 RETURN 💖

0 on success. periodt. 🫶
