xe_hw_engin...s_sysfs_init(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

xe_hw_engine_class_sysfs_init — init HW engine classes on GT 💅

(also hi bestie, this page is straight out of the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's giving very much "small function, big responsibilities" energy 🦋)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int xe_hw_engine_class_sysfs_init (struct xe_gt *gt );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• gt — the Xe GT. that's it, that's the whole argument. one (1) thing. iconic of it honestly 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this routine creates sysfs for HW engine classes, and then it adds methods to get/set different scheduling properties for HW engine class.

so like: sysfs gets built, and then the scheduling-property getters and setters come along for the ride. both things, one function, no cap. 🫶

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• returns an error value when it fails 😭
• returns 0 for success 🎉

(vibe check: zero means we ate. anything else means we did not. 💀)

---

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

• Kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_hw_engine_class_sysfs.c — the actual home of this whole situation
• xe_hw_engine_timeout_in_range(9) — another page, go read it, iykyk ✨

ngl bestie, if you're calling this, double-check your struct xe_gt * first — passing a bogus pointer is not the main character move you think it is 🙈

---

later besties 💜 — this one comes to you from ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe, dated October 2026, and yeah, the page header still says xe_hw_engin...s_sysfs_init(9) because even kernel docs get a little truncated sometimes 😭✌️
