🌸 xe_exec_queue_create_class(9) — the "make me a queue for THIS engine class" era

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 you're about to meet xe_exec_queue_create_class, which is literally the moment a fresh exec queue gets born for one very specific engine class. main character energy, no cap ✨

✨ NAME ✨

xe_exec_queue_create_class — spawn an exec queue that's locked in for one specific engine class 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct xe_exec_queue * xe_exec_queue_create_class (struct xe_device *xe
, struct xe_gt *gt , struct xe_vm *vm , enum xe_engine_class class , u32
flags , u64 extensions );

---

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• xe — the Xe device, your whole GPU situation 💜
• gt — the GT (graphics tile) that this exec queue belongs to
• vm — the VM this exec queue lives in
• class — the engine class, like, the vibe of engine you want 👑
• flags — the flags you pass when creating the exec queue
• extensions — extensions for the exec queue creation, iykyk

---

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

short and sweet: this makes an exec queue for whichever engine class you specified. that's the whole assignment, and it ate 💅✨

you get a pointer to the created exec queue on success 🫶 — and on failure you get ERR_PTR, so like, check it before you start celebrating 😭
