ice_service_task(9)
okay so bestie, let me put you on to ice_service_task from the Kernel API Manual. this function is literally the manager of all the little subtasks, and it's giving main character energy fr fr π
. it's the one that handles and runs every subtask, no cap. let's get into it β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
ice_service_task β manage and run subtasks. that's the whole job, bestie. it's the bestie who keeps all the subtasks in check, periodt π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void ice_service_task (struct work_struct *work );
so like, it returns nothing (void) and takes one argument, bestie. simple but iconic π
β¨ ARGUMENTS β¨
workβ pointer towork_structcontained by the PF struct. so it's a pointer to astruct work_structthat lives inside the PF struct, iykyk π«Ά
β¨ SEE ALSO β¨
here's the whole squad of related functions and files, bestie. every single one, no skips π:
