π« imgu_mmu_tlb_invalidate(9) π«
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β this one's a little function with a big job and honestly it's giving "quiet luxury" energy. Let's get into it π

like, the whole TLB. gone. poof. β¨
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void imgu_mmu_tlb_invalidate (struct imgu_mmu *mmu );
that's it. that's the whole vibe. one arg, no return value, no drama π
π ARGUMENTS π
mmuβ the MMU you're doing the invalidate operation on. yes queen, this is the one you're yeeting the TLB for π«Ά
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
So this function invalidates the whole TLB. Not part of it, not a lil' slice β the whole thing. no cap.
β οΈ Important bestie: it must be called when the hardware is powered on. Like, the hardware has to be awake for this to make sense β don't come at it while it's asleep, that's not the move π
