xe_ggtt_insert_node(9)

💖 NAME 💖

xe_ggtt_insert_node — Insert a &xe_ggtt_node into the GGTT. This is the xe_ggtt_insert_node(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's lowkey iconic: one function, three args, node inserted, periodt. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so the signature is literally:

struct xe_ggtt_node * xe_ggtt_insert_node (struct xe_ggtt *ggtt , u32
size , u32 align );

Bestie, do not retype this, copy it. 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ggtt — the xe_ggtt into which the node should be inserted. That's the main character target. 🫶
• size — size of the node. Yes, the size. Not a vibe, a measurement. 📏
• align — alignment constrain of the node. Their word constrain, not mine 😭 but you know what it means.

🌸 RETURN 🌸

xe_ggtt_node on success or a ERR_PTR on failure. That's it. Slay if it works, check that ERR_PTR if it doesn't. 💀

cute sign-off time: the source/version line says ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe, the date says October 2026, and this page is xe_ggtt_insert_node(9) — bye bestie, go insert that node responsibly 💖🦋
