arch_hibern...ader_restore(9)

💖 arch_hibernation_header_restore — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the arch_hibernation_header_restore(9) page, part of the Kernel API Manual 🎀 and yeah the header legit shows up as arch_hibern...ader_restore(9) because even manpage titles gotta get abbreviated sometimes, it's giving "no thoughts head empty, truncate everything" 💅 anyway—

✨ NAME ✨

arch_hibernation_header_restore — literally reads the architecture-specific data out of the hibernation image header 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int arch_hibernation_header_restore (void *addr );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• addr — the address you're reading the data from 📍 that's it, that's the whole argument, the whole main character 🫶

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

• Kernel file ./arch/x86/power/hibernate.c 👑
• pfn_is_nosave(9)
• compute_e820_crc32(9)
• arch_hibernation_header_save(9) — yes the save one, they're a matched set, iconic duo fr fr 💜

ok so like. genuinely. this function takes a void *addr, reads the arch-specific bits out of the hibernation image header, and returns an int. that's the tea ☕ no cap, that's the whole vibe. go check arch_hibernation_header_save(9) if you wanna see the other half of the glow-up 💫

heads up bestie: the manpage does not say what the return value means, so don't go making stuff up, iykyk 🙈 stick to what's on the page.

sign-off time 🎀 this lil beauty lives in ./arch/x86/power, dated October 2026, and it's out here doing the lord's work in the Kernel API Manual ✨ bye bestie, hydrate and check your return codes 💖🌸
