🌸 ice_capture_crosststamp(9) 🌸

okay bestie, so this lil page lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's about ice_capture_crosststamp — the function that captures a device/system cross timestamp ✨ which sounds fake but it's real and it's iconic.

💫 NAME 💫

ice_capture_crosststamp — capture a device/system cross timestamp 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ice_capture_crosststamp (ktime_t *device , struct
system_counterval_t *system , void *__ctx );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • device — the current device time 💅
  • system — the system counter value, read synchronously with the device time. like they're literally read together, main character energy, no cap 🦋
  • __ctx — the context passed from ice_ptp_getcrosststamp 🌸

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what it does: it reads the device clock and the system (ART) clock simultaneously, then returns the corrected clock values in ns. two clocks, one moment, absolutely slaying ✨👑

⭐ RETURN ⭐

zero on success, or a negative error code on failure. that's it, that's the vibe check 💀

ngl if you get nonzero back, something went wrong. negative error code = not the moment.
