✨ lsm_error_debug_data_get ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual β€” yes that's the manual name, and yes it's giving very much "section 3, the C library zone". this one's short and sweet but SO useful when something goes sideways, so let's get into it πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

lsm_error_debug_data_get β€” retrieves the debug data from the error. that's it, that's the whole job. she's a getter. she gets. periodt πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void * lsm_error_debug_data_get (lsm_error_ptr e, uint32_t *size);

literally two args and a void * back. no cap, it's that simple ✨


πŸ“ ARGUMENTS πŸ“

  • e β€” the lsm_error you wanna pull debug data out of. your lil error object, your main character πŸ’œ
  • size β€” a uint32_t pointer. it's the output pointer for the debug data size, so this is where the size of that data lands when the function is done with you. she writes back to you, lowkey iconic 🌸

πŸ‘‘ VERSION πŸ‘‘

1.0 β€” a classic, a legend, an original 🫢


πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

retrieves the debug data for the specified lsm_error. that's the whole vibe: you hand her an error, she hands you back the debug data. the way that a single call can just... explain what went wrong? obsessed 😭


🚨 NOTE 🚨

listen up because this part MATTERS, bestie, do not skip it: - the address returned is valid until lsm_error gets freed. if you need a longer scope, copy the return value. do NOT just hold onto that pointer and act surprised later πŸ’€ - do not free the returned pointer. not yours. not your business. hands off 🚫

this is the "it's not yours, don't touch it" of pointers, fr fr.


🌈 RETURN 🌈

void *. returns NULL if argument e is NULL or not a valid lsm_error_ptr. so yeah β€” if you pass her nothing, or you pass her something that isn't a real error, she gives you NULL right back. fair. valid. we respect it ✨

that's the whole page, bestie!! short page, huge energy, and now you know exactly how to grab debug data off an error without committing a memory crime. iykyk πŸ’…

this lil gem comes to you from the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual β€” page lsm_error..._data_get(3), entry lsm_error_debug_data_get β€” dated February 2026. mwah, go write some slay code πŸŽ€πŸ’–βœ¨
