πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… hxg_sizeof(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay bestie, so this is hxg_sizeof, and it lives in section 9 of the Kernel API Manual (yes, the kernel one, we're literally in the big leagues now πŸŽ€). it's a tiny macro with main character energy and honestly? it ate.


✨ NAME ✨

hxg_sizeof β€” queries the size of the object or type, but make it HXG units πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

hxg_sizeof (T );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap. πŸ¦‹


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • T β€” the object or the type, whichever one you're trying to size up, bestie. that's your input, that's your girl.

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so here's the tea β˜• β€” hxg_sizeof will force a compilation error if the actual size is not aligned to the HXG unit (u32). like, it's not gonna politely warn you, it's not gonna slide into your DMs with a suggestion. it's gonna straight-up refuse to compile. πŸ’€

think of it as your compiler being a protective bestie who catches your bad alignment before you ship it. lowkey iconic, highkey necessary. the way it just says "no ❀️" at build time? obsessed. πŸ”₯


🌈 RETURN 🌈

the size, in dwords (u32). slay. πŸ’…
