xe_sriov_vf_init_early(9)
β¨ xe_sriov_vf_init_early β bestie edition β¨
Okay so this one's a kernel API manual page, specifically for xe_sriov_vf_init_early(9) β like, the function page, not the whole big manual. Let's get into it π
πΈ NAME πΈ
xe_sriov_vf_init_early β literally just "Initialize SR-IOV VF specific data." That's the whole vibe. Short and iconic π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void xe_sriov_vf_init_early (struct xe_device *xe );
No return value, bestie β it's a void, meaning it hands you nothing back. It just does the thing and dips π
π ARGUMENTS π
xeβ thexe_deviceyou're initializing. That's the one and only thing you pass in, so don't overthink it π«Ά
π₯ SEE ALSO π₯
This is the little friend group of related stuff, ok:
- Kernel file
./drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_sriov_vf.cβ that's where the actual code lives, iykyk VF restore procedure in PF KMD and VF KMD(9)xe_sriov_vf_migration_supported(9)xe_sriov_vf_migration_disable(9)xe_sriov_vf_init_late(9)xe_sriov_vf_debugfs_register(9)
All of these are linked pages, so if you're lost just go peek at them π
Heads up: this page is from ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe and it's dated October 2026 β so like, future energy, but the source and version and date are all right there in the footer of the manual. The manual itself is the Kernel API Manual, and the page name matches the function name, which is honestly so satisfying β¨
And that's the whole page, bestie! No cap, it's a tiny one β just the name, the synopsis, the one argument, and the see-alsos. Obsessed with how short it is, honestly π
Sign-off: this page comes from the kernel source tree at ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe, dated October 2026, in the Kernel API Manual β bye bye, go read the code π
