π cpuidle_gove..._latency_req(9) π
okay so real talk, bestie β this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's, like, adorably short. We're talking three sections and a dream. But every crumb is here, no cap. Let's get into it β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
cpuidle_governor_latency_req β compute a latency constraint for CPU π§
Like, that's the whole mission statement. It computes a latency constraint, and it does it for a CPU. Iconic, focused, no filler. Periodt.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
s64 cpuidle_governor_latency_req (unsigned int cpu );
bestie look at that signature. It hands you back an s64, and it wants an unsigned int cpu in return. Balanced. Symmetrical. A little trading situation between you and the kernel π«Ά
π ARGUMENTS π
cpuβ target CPU π―
That's it. That's the whole cast of characters. One (1) argument. She's low maintenance and we respect that π

ngl there's not a single warning, exit status, or env var on this page β so there's literally nothing sketchy to flag. just vibes and one latency constraint π
and that's the page, bestie! πΈ this little cutie comes to you from ./drivers/cpuidle, dated October 2026 β main character energy from the cpuidle directory, as always ππ
