FUNCTION::PAGES_TO_S(3stap)
β¨ NAME β¨
function::pages_to_string β bestie, this one turns pages into a human readable string π
It's a SystemTap tapset function from the Memory Tapset, and it's giving "translate the nerdy number into something your eyeballs can actually read."
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
pages_to_string:string(pages:long)
π ARGUMENTS π
pagesβ the number of pages you want translated. Just hand it over, that's it, that's the whole ask π«Ά
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so here's the tea, and it's honestly so simple:
pages_to_string takes your pages value and multiplies it by page_size to get the number of bytes. Then it returns whatever bytes_to_string gives back for that result β¨
So like. Pages in, pretty string out. No cap. It's literally a lil relay race β page_size does the math, bytes_to_string does the glow-up π
Heads up bestie: it doesn't do the byte-to-string conversion itself. It hands that off to bytes_to_string. If you're curious what the output looks like, that's the function to go stare at π
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
That's the whole page, angel π Go forth and convert those pages.
