FUNCTION::INDENT_DEPTH(3stap)

💖 function::indent_depth 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SystemTap Tapset Reference — manual section 3stap, utility functions for using an... something something, the header got cropped mid-word, we move. anyway. sit down, hydrate, let's talk about indentation. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

function::indent_depth — returns the global nested-depth 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

indent_depth:long(delta:long)

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• delta — the amount of depth added/removed for each call

---

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

so this function returns a number that you can use for appropriate indentation, similar to indent. that's the whole vibe. ✨

call it with a small positive delta, or a matching negative delta. matching!! keep them matched, bestie, don't be chaotic about it. 😭

and here's the part that's lowkey the whole personality of this function: unlike the thread_indent_depth function, the indent does not track individual indent values on a per thread basis. it's giving global. it's giving one shared depth for everybody. no per-thread little diaries. periodt. 👑
