alarmtimer_enqueue(9)

✨ alarmtimer_enqueue(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the alarmtimer_enqueue page from the Kernel API Manual 💖 this one's a lil function with a big job and honestly it's giving "small but mighty" energy.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

alarmtimer_enqueue — adds an alarm timer to an alarm_base timerqueue 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void alarmtimer_enqueue (struct alarm_base *base , struct alarm *alarm
);

like, that's it. that's the whole signature. no cap. ✨

---

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• base — pointer to the base where the timer is being run 🫶
• alarm — pointer to the alarm being enqueued. literally the star of the show 👑

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so what does it actually do? it adds alarm to an alarm_base timerqueue. iconic behaviour, honestly. 🌈

⚠️ must hold base->lock when calling. this is not a vibe suggestion, bestie — it's required. do not skip the lock. 😭
