πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ dm_test_nv_clock_id_invalid πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” today we're looking at dm_test_nv_clock_id_invalid(9) and honestly? it's a little icon of defensive programming πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

dm_test_nv_clock_id_invalid β€” literally just here to test that an unknown id gets rejected πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void dm_test_nv_clock_id_invalid (struct kunit *test );

πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • test β€” the KUnit test context, aka the group chat where this test tells everyone how it went 🫢

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the whole vibe here is verification, no cap: an unknown clock id needs to return false, and it needs to leave the output clock_type untouched. that's it, that's the assignment πŸ’…

and why do we care? because it's guarding against the previously uninitialized path β€” like, bestie, that path used to be out here with no initialization and we are not going back πŸ˜­πŸ‘‘
