✨ xe_lrc_setup_wa_bb_with_scratch(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 — this one's a lil function from the Xe graphics driver and honestly? it's giving "worker bee of the workarounds". no cap, let's get into it 🐝

🌸 NAME 🌸

xe_lrc_setup_wa_bb_with_scratch — literally runs all the wa bb setup callbacks. all of them. every single one. she does not skip 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int xe_lrc_setup_wa_bb_with_scratch (struct xe_lrc *lrc , struct
       xe_hw_engine *hwe , u32 *scratch );

yup, that's the whole signature — int in, int out, three args in the middle. iconic honestly 🎀

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

  • lrc — the xe_lrc struct instance 🧚 your main character, fr
  • hwe — the xe_hw_engine struct instance 🔥 the hardware engine bestie in question
  • scratch — preallocated scratch buffer for temporary storage 🍓 like a lil sticky note for the kernel, preallocated so nobody's scrambling at runtime

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 on success — we love a clean exit, slay 💅
  • negative error code on failure — not the vibe, but at least she tells you 😭

like, that's a whole squad. go read them too, iykyk 👑

⚠️ friendly reminder: this is a kernel manpage, section 9, so it's about in-kernel APIs — not something you just run in your shell, bestie. respect the kernel space 🙈

and that's the tea ☕ — brought to you by the fine folks over in ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe, dated October 2026, printed in your very own Kernel API Manual 💖 bye bestie, go write some good wa bb setup callbacks 🎀✨🦋
