bvec_set_virt(9)

Hey bestie!! 🌈 Welcome to the bvec_set_virt(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, the manual name is right there, we're official and everything. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

bvec_set_virt — initialize a bvec based on a virtual address. That's the whole assignment, and it ate. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void bvec_set_virt (struct bio_vec *bv , void *vaddr , unsigned int len );

It's void, so don't go hunting for a return value, bestie. 😌

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• bv — the bvec to initialize, periodt.
• vaddr — the virtual address to set the bvec to.
• len — the length of the bvec.
