dvb_ringbuffer_write(9)

💅 dvb_ringbuffer_write(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for dvb_ringbuffer_write(9) — the ringbuffer write function that’s lowkey iconic. We’re gonna get you comfy with it, fr fr. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

dvb_ringbuffer_write — writes a buffer into the ringbuffer. periodt.

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

ssize_t dvb_ringbuffer_write (struct dvb_ringbuffer *rbuf , const u8
*buf , size_t len );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• rbuf — pointer to struct dvb_ringbuffer. That’s the ringbuffer main character right there. 👑
• buf — pointer to the buffer where the data will be read. Yep, exactly like the page says. 📖
• len — bytes from ring buffer into buf. That’s the length situation, iykyk. 💅

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

This variant assumes that the buffer is a memory at the Kernel space. So like, kernel-space memory vibes only — no cap, that’s the whole assumption. 💖

⭐ RETURN ⭐

number of bytes transferred or -EFAULT. That’s the tea: you get the byte count, or -EFAULT shows up and ruins the vibe. 😭
