PMEM2_MAP_GET_ADDRESS(3)

✨ pmem2_map_get_address() ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the PMDK Programmer's Manual and honestly? it's a little baby function that does exactly one thing and does it flawlessly. no notes. 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

pmem2_map_get_address() — reads mapping address 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <libpmem2.h>

void *pmem2_map_get_address(struct pmem2_map *map);

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, the pmem2_map_get_address() function reads the address of the created mapping. that's it. that's the whole job. she's an icon, she's a legend, and she is not doing anything else today. 👑

the map parameter points to the structure describing a mapping that was created using the pmem2_map_new(3) function. so basically: you already did the whole mapping thing with pmem2_map_new(3), and now you're just asking "hey girl, where did you put it?" and she tells you. periodt. ✨

ngl if you hand her a map that didn't come from pmem2_map_new(3), that's on you. she's reading what you gave her, no vibe check included. 😭

---

💖 RETURN VALUE 💖

the pmem2_map_get_address() function returns a pointer to the mapped area. that's the address, bestie. that's the whole tea. 🍓
