xe_mmio_init_vf_view(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ xe_mmio_init_vf_view ✨

okay so this is a page straight outta the kernel API manual (section 9, the fancy kernel-doc one 💅) and it's about xe_mmio_init_vf_view — the little function that sets up an MMIO instance so it does its thing like the VF does. that's it, that's the whole vibe check 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

xe_mmio_init_vf_view — Initialize an MMIO instance for accesses like the VF 🫶

like, literally: you hand it an xe_mmio and it becomes the VF's point of view. iconic behavior honestly ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void xe_mmio_init_vf_view (struct xe_mmio *mmio , const struct xe_mmio
*base , unsigned int vfid );

that return type is void, bestie — you get no gift back, you just get the transformation 💫

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • mmio — the target xe_mmio that you're initializing as the VF's view 👑 this is the one getting the glow-up
  • base — the source xe_mmio you're initializing from 🌱 (it's const, so we're respectfully not touching it, no cap)
  • vfid — the VF identifier, an unsigned int 🔢 that's the number that tells everyone which VF we're talking about

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

go snoop in the kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_mmio.c if you wanna see the whole friend group 💜 and these besties too:

fr fr this page is short and sweet — no options, no exit statuses, no environment variables, just three arguments and a whole lotta xe_mmio energy 🌈

okay bye bestie, this one came from ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe and it's stamped October 2026 — xe_mmio_init_vf_view(9), slay, periodt 🧚‍♀️💅🔥
