🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to compute_e820_crc32(9) from the Kernel API Manual — it's giving "tiny function, very specific job" energy ✨. Its whole job is to calculate crc32 of a given e820 table. No cap, that's the name section, and it ate 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u32 compute_e820_crc32 (struct e820_table *table );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• table — the e820 table to be calculated 🫶. That's the table you're handing over, bestie.

💖 RETURN 💖

the resulting checksum 😭👑. That's what comes back to you.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

• Kernel file ./arch/x86/power/hibernate.c — plus pfn_is_nosave(9), arch_hibernation_header_save(9), and arch_hibernation_header_restore(9).

mwah 💋 this page's source/version is ./arch/x86/power, and it's dated October 2026. bye bestie 🫶🌈
