gcov_info_dup(9)

💖 NAME

okay so welcome to the gcov_info_dup(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 💅. The main character here is gcov_info_dup - duplicate profiling data set. That's literally the whole name vibe. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS

struct gcov_info * gcov_info_dup (struct gcov_info *info );

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• info — the profiling data set you want duplicated. Like, the actual data set, bestie. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION

On success, it returns a newly allocated duplicate — slay, fresh-copy energy ✨. On error, it returns NULL, and that's the whole mood. 😭 No extra lore, no cap.
