end_of_iter(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ¦‹ NAME πŸ¦‹

hiii bestie, welcome to end_of_iter(9) from the Kernel API Manual β€” this is the little function that checks if the iterator has reached the end. That’s the whole assignment, and it ate. πŸ’…

end_of_iter β€” checks if the iterator has reached the end.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool end_of_iter (struct vgic_its_iter *iter );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • iter β€” the iterator to check. This is the one getting the vibe check, bestie. 🫢

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

Okay so here’s the lore: when the iterator has completed processing the final ITE in the last device table, it was marked to indicate the end of iteration by setting its device and ITE pointers to NULL. end_of_iter() checks whether the iterator was marked as end. No cap, that’s it. ✨

🌸 RETURN 🌸

True if the iterator is marked as end, false otherwise. Simple, iconic, done. πŸ’–
