iowait_schedule(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so welcome to the iowait_schedule(9) page in the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨ this one is literally about scheduling the default send engine work, and that's the whole vibe. no cap, it's short and iconic.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool iowait_schedule (struct iowait *wait , struct workqueue_struct *wq
, int cpu );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• wait — the wait struct to schedule. yes bestie, that's the one you're passing in.
• wq — the workqueue for schedule. it's giving "where the scheduling happens" energy 🫶
• cpu — the cpu. that's it. that's the argument. no extra lore 😭
