FUNCTION::USRDEV2KER(3stap)

💫 FUNCTION::USRDEV2KER 💫

okay bestie, welcome to the Device Tapset corner of the SystemTap manual (yes the page header really does say FUNCTION::USRDEV2KER(3stap), we're keeping it 💅). this one is short and sweet and honestly kinda iconic.

✨ NAME ✨

function::usrdev2kerndev — converts a user-space device number into the format used in the kernel 🦋

like, that's literally the whole job. you hand it a device number the way userspace sees it, and it hands you back the same device in the kernel's own little format. a glow-up, but for numbers. periodt.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

usrdev2kerndev:long(dev:long)

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — the device number in user-space format. that's it, that's the whole input, she's lowkey undemanding 👑

---

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

• tapset::dev(3stap) — go read the dev tapset page too, it's giving the whole friend group 🌈

ngl this page has no options, no environment variables, no exit statuses, no bugs section, no authors, no copyright, no license — just one function doing one thing flawlessly. main character energy, honestly. 💀

and that's the tea 🍓 — this was the SystemTap Tapset Reference, Version dated September 2026, and the header says FUNCTION::USRDEV2KER(3stap) in case you forgot where you were. slay, bye bestie 🫶✨
