💖 die_get_call_lineno(9) 💖

okay so this is die_get_call_lineno(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it’s here to hand you a call-site line number with main-character energy ✨

NAME 🌸

die_get_call_lineno — Get callsite line number of inline-function instance 💅

---

SYNOPSIS 🎀

here’s the exact signature, no cap:

int die_get_call_lineno (Dwarf_Die *in_die );

---

ARGUMENTS 🦋

• in_die — a DIE of an inlined function instance. that’s the thing you’re passing in, bestie 🫶

---

DESCRIPTION 💖

Get call-site line number of in_die. This means from where the inline function is called.

so like, you give it in_die, and it gets you the call-site line number — literally the spot where that inline function gets called from. iconic behavior, honestly 😭🔥
