account_group_exec_runtime(9)

account_group_exec_runtime(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — we're talking about account_group_exec_runtime(9) and it's giving “very specific kernel bookkeeping, but make it iconic.” ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

account_group_exec_runtime — maintain exec runtime for a thread group. periodt 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void account_group_exec_runtime (struct task_struct *tsk , unsigned long
       long ns );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• tsk — pointer to task structure. literally the task handle, iykyk 🌸
• ns — time value by which to increment the sum_exec_runtime field of the thread_group_cputime structure. 🎀

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the lowkey deal: if thread group time is being maintained, this function gets the structure for the running CPU and updates the sum_exec_runtime field there. that's the whole vibe check. ⭐
