okay so bestie, we're deep in the Kernel API Manual today β like, we left userspace and we're fully living in kernel land now, and honestly? iconic. this one's a macro page, short and sweet, so let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
SCU_NORMALIZE_COMPLETION_STATUS β and that's... literally it. the original description slot is empty ("β undescribed --", if you're keeping score π). no cap, she's mysterious. main character energy fr fr.

π DESCRIPTION π
okay so this macro is a little glow-up machine π₯ it takes a value from SCU_GET_COMPLETION_TL_STATUS and normalizes it for a return code. that's the whole job. she takes the raw TL status situation and converts it into something you can actually return. lowkey important, highkey underrated π
