✨ get_count_from_result(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’– this one's a little function called get_count_from_result and honestly? she's giving quiet competence. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

get_count_from_result β€” literally just, like, grabbing the event count from all the result elements in res πŸ’… no cap, that's the whole vibe.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int get_count_from_result (struct perf_event *event , struct
hv_24x7_data_result_buffer *resb , struct hv_24x7_result *res , u64
*countp , struct hv_24x7_result **next );

like yes, that's a lot of arguments, but she handles it 😭πŸ”₯


🌈 ARGUMENTS 🌈

  • event β€” the event that's associated with res. her ride-or-die, fr fr.
  • resb β€” the result buffer that contains res. think of it as the group chat and res is one of the messages 🫢
  • res β€” the result we're actually working on. main character energy right here πŸ‘‘
  • countp β€” output variable holding the event count. this is where the good stuff lands ✨
  • next β€” optional output variable that points to the next result in resb. only there if you need her, ngl πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so here's the tea β˜• if the event that corresponds to this result needs aggregation of the result element values β€” like, if it's gotta add them all up β€” then this function does exactly that. periodt. πŸ’€

no extra magic, no secret behaviour. that's the described job, and she does the described job. 🧚
