bin2hex(9)

✨ bin2hex — the manual page, but make it cute ✨

okay so bestie, you're reading bin2hex(9) from the Kernel API Manual and honestly? it's a little icon and it's about to eat. 💅 this one's a kernel-level lil guy, so stay with me, it's short and sweet.

🌸 NAME 🌸

bin2hex — convert binary data to an ascii hexadecimal string 🦋

like, literally the glow-up where your crunchy raw bytes get a full makeover into a cute readable ascii hex string. no cap, that's the whole vibe. ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

char * bin2hex (char *dst , const void *src , size_t count );

here's the exact signature, bestie — copy it character for character, do not come for me about the spacing, it's giving authentic. 😭

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• dst — the ascii hexadecimal result 💫 like this is where the pretty output lives. she's the destination. she's main character energy.
• src — your binary data 🌈 the raw, unglamorous stuff going in.
• count — the binary data length 📏 aka how much of src we're working with, bestie. numbers matter.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

if you're obsessed (and you should be), go check out the rest of the family — they all live in the kernel file ./lib/hexdump.c:

• hex_to_bin(9)
• hex2bin(9)
• hex_dump_to_buffer(9)
• print_hex_dump(9)

fr fr, the whole hex-squad is right there. iykyk. 🫶

ngl bestie, this page is short but it's a baddie. read the arguments, respect the arguments, and go convert some binary. periodt. 💀🔥
