💖 binder_enqueue_work_ilocked(9) — Kernel API Manual 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to binder_enqueue_work_ilocked(9) from the Kernel API Manual — it's literally the little kernel helper whose whole job is “Add an item to the work list,” and we're gonna make it make sense. periodt ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

binder_enqueue_work_ilocked — Add an item to the work list. That's the vibe, that's the gig 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void binder_enqueue_work_ilocked (struct binder_work *work , struct
list_head *target_list );

---

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• work — the struct binder_work to add to list 🫶
• target_list — the list to add work to 🎀

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Adds the work to the specified list. It also asserts that work is not already on a list — so no sneaky double-adding, bestie 😭

lock check: this one requires the proc->inner_lock to be held. Like, actually held. Don't come in here without it 💀
