xe_pt_update_ops_abort(9)

💅 xe_pt_update_ops_abort(9) — like, the whole kernel API manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the glow-up of xe_pt_update_ops_abort(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual. this is the page where we learn how to hit undo on PT update operations. no cap, it's short and it's iconic. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

xe_pt_update_ops_abort — Abort PT update operations. that's the whole vibe. we're aborting. we're unwinding. we're leaving. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void xe_pt_update_ops_abort (struct xe_tile *tile , struct xe_vma_ops
*vops );

so it returns void (nothing back, bestie, it's giving "the journey was the reward"), and it takes a struct xe_tile * plus a struct xe_vma_ops *. that's it. that's the signature. 💅

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• tile — the Tile of PT update operations. like, the actual tile we're doing the PT stuff on. 🧚
• vops — the VMA operationa. (yes, "operationa" — that's literally what the page says, i'm not fixing it, it's canon now 😭. it's the VMA operations, fr fr.)

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so here's the tea: xe_pt_update_ops_abort aborts PT update operations by unwinding internal PT state. that's the entire description and honestly? it ate. it says what it does, it does what it says, periodt. 🔥

lowkey the important word is unwinding — it's walking that internal PT state back to where it was supposed to be. internal is doing a lot of work in that sentence, iykyk. 👑

the group chat, basically. all the PT besties you should also be reading:

like, the whole xe_pt cinematic universe is right there. go read them, bestie, they're all linked and everything. 🌈

quick vibe check before you go: this one's the abort. prepare, run and fini are the main-character trio — this is the "nvm bestie, we're not doing that" button. 🫶

and that's the page!! 🌸 this little cutie lives in ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe and the docs stamped it October 2026 — so go forth, abort those PT update operations, and remember: unwinding internal PT state is a form of self care. mwah 💖👑⭐
