✨ xe_pagefault_reset(9) ✨

okay so bestie, we're deep in the kernel API manual today β€” this one lives in section 9, the driver/kernel-API zone πŸŽ€ and it's all about clearing out page fault drama on a GT. no cap, it's a tiny function but it does exactly one job and it does it slay.


🌸 NAME 🌸

xe_pagefault_reset β€” page fault reset for a GT πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void xe_pagefault_reset (struct xe_device *xe , struct xe_gt *gt );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • xe β€” the xe device instance, your main character struct 🫢
  • gt β€” the GT that's getting reset, the one we're doing this whole thing for ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So here's the vibe: you call this and it resets the Xe page fault state for a GT. literally what that means is β€” it squashes any pending faults on that GT. gone. deleted. not me clearing the queue bestie 😭πŸ”₯

think of it as the lil cleanup crew for a GT that's being reset, so no stale fault nonsense lingers around afterwards. iconic behavior, honestly πŸ‘‘
