ionic_queue_consume_entries(9)

💅 ionic_queue_consume_entries — the glow-up for your consumer index ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the ionic_queue_consume_entries(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — yes it's a real kernel function and yes it's lowkey iconic 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

ionic_queue_consume_entries — literally just bumps the consumer index up by entries 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ionic_queue_consume_entries (struct ionic_queue *q , u16 entries );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• q — the queue structure itself, your main character 💅
• entries — how many entries you wanna increment by, fr fr

---

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so the caller has to make sure the queue is not empty — like, that's on you, bestie 😭 this function does not check it here. no vibe check, no safety net, nothing. so double-check before you call it, no cap.

also important: this is only valid for to-device queues ⭐ don't be out here using it on anything else, it's giving "not for you" energy 🙈
