hl_mem_area_crosses_range(9)

💅 hl_mem_area_crosses_range(9) — Kernel API Manual

okay so bestie, welcome to hl_mem_area_crosses_range, straight out of the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil bool-returning cutie that answers the eternal question: does this memory area cross into a range? 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool hl_mem_area_crosses_range (u64 address , u32 size , u64
range_start_address , u64 range_end_address );

like, four args, one bool out. it's giving "simple but important" energy fr fr 💅

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• address — the start address of the area we wanna validate. the beginning of the story, the main character's origin 🫶
• size — the size in bytes of the area we're validating. how much of the story there is, bestie 📏
• range_start_address — the start address of the valid range. where the valid zone begins, no cap ✨
• range_end_address — the end address of the valid range. and where it stops, periodt 🛑

---

👑 RETURN 👑

• true — the area overlaps part or all of the valid range 😭 yes even a little bit counts, overlap is overlap
• false — otherwise. no overlap, no drama, we move 💀

okay bestie, buckle up, this is the long part 💖 the whole thing lives in the kernel file ./drivers/accel/habanalabs/common/habanalabs.h, and it's friends with literally everyone:

ngl bestie, hl_mem_area_inside_range(9) is right there at the end of the list — the sibling energy is real 👀
