errseq_sample(9)

okay so bestie 💖 welcome to errseq_sample(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this page is lowkey iconic, and we're about to get into the error-sequence sampling of it all. ✨

🏷️ NAME

errseq_sample — Grab current errseq_t value. periodt.

📜 SYNOPSIS

errseq_t errseq_sample (errseq_t *eseq );

🧾 ARGUMENTS

• eseq — pointer to the errseq_t to be sampled. That's the little value getting the vibe check 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION

This function allows callers to initialise their errseq_t variable. If the error has been "seen", new callers will not see an old error. If there is an unseen error in eseq, the caller of this function will see it the next time it checks for an error. 🫶

🌈 CONTEXT

Any context. Literally any context, bestie — no restrictions listed here 😌

🔥 RETURN

The current errseq value. That's the whole return, no cap. Slay.
