event_trigger_check_remove(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ event_trigger_check_remove ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 this one's a lil function called event_trigger_check_remove(9) and honestly? it's giving "tiny little vibe check in the middle of the trace subsystem" 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

event_trigger_check_remove — literally just checks whether an event trigger specifies remove 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool event_trigger_check_remove (const char *glob );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • glob — the trigger command string, and it may or may not have the optional remove(!) operator on it 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so the event trigger callback implementations pass in glob as a parameter — that's the whole bit 👑

glob is the command name, either with or without a remove(!) operator. no biggie either way, she handles both 💁‍♀️

and what does the function do with it? it simply parses the glob and figures out whether the command corresponds to a trigger removal or a trigger addition 🔥 that's the entire job. main character energy, minimal effort, zero drama ✨

🌈 RETURN 🌈

  • true if this is a remove command 👑
  • false otherwise 🙈

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋
