xe_step_platform_get(9)

💅 xe_step_platform_get(9) — like, the kernel API manual, bestie

okay so you found a (9) page, which means it's kernel API territory — section 9, developer girlies only. this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's called xe_step_platform_get. it's literally one job and it eats. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

xe_step_platform_get — figure out the platform-level stepping from the PCI revid. that's it. that's the whole vibe check 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void xe_step_platform_get (enum xe_platform platform , u8 revid , struct
xe_step_info *step );

look at her. three arguments, returns nothing (void), no cap. she just does the thing and leaves 💅

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• platform — the Xe platform. which one? whichever one you hand her 🌸
• revid — the PCI revid. yep, that one 🙈
• step — pointer to the step struct that's gonna get updated. she's writing into it, so don't be weird about it ✨

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what she actually does: she takes the PCI revid, converts it into a platform-level stepping value, and stores that into step->platform. that's the entire lore. simple, iconic, done 👑

it's giving "small function, huge main character energy." honestly obsessed 🔥

---

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

these ones, go look at them, they're in the same friend group:

• the kernel file ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_step.c 👀
• xe_step_pre_gmdid_get(9)
• xe_step_gmdid_get(9)

and that's the page, bestie 🫶 straight out of ./drivers/gpu/drm/xe, dated October 2026 — so like, future girlie energy fr fr. go read the source, slay, and remember: step->platform is where the answer lands 💖🌈⭐
