✨ auditsc_get_stamp(9) ✨

okay so bestie, this one's a function from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's short but it matters. it's called auditsc_get_stamp, and it does exactly one iconic little job: grabbing you local copies of audit_context values. that's it, that's the whole vibe. πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int auditsc_get_stamp (struct audit_context *ctx , struct audit_stamp
*stamp );

like, look at her. two pointers, one int return, no drama. ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • ctx β€” the audit_context for the task. this is the context you're pulling from, the main character of the operation ngl.
  • stamp β€” the timestamp to record. this is where the good stuff lands, bestie. 🫢

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the whole deal: it gets you local copies of audit_context values β€” hence the name, iykyk β€” and also sets the context as auditable. yes, that's a side effect, and yes, it's part of the job description. lowkey multitasking queen behavior. πŸ‘‘

like, it's not just reading values into stamp, it's also flagging that context as auditable on the way. two things at once, no cap. πŸ”₯

πŸ’€ real talk: this page is short enough that you could read it in a group chat between classes. don't sleep on it just because it's small β€” it's doing real audit work out here.

that's the whole page, bestie! 🌈 this one came out of the ./kernel source tree, part of the Kernel API Manual, dated October 2026, and it's filed under auditsc_get_stamp(9). go forth and stamp responsibly πŸŽ€βœ¨
