✨ is_lazy_mmu_mode_active ✨

hey bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’… this one's a tiny little function but she's got opinions, okay? let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

is_lazy_mmu_mode_active β€” literally just checks if we're currently in lazy MMU mode rn. that's the whole vibe check πŸ”₯


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

bool is_lazy_mmu_mode_active (void );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • void β€” no arguments, bestie. none. zero. she takes nothing and she gives you a bool. iconic behavior honestly ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

okay so the tea β˜• β€” this function tests whether the current context is in lazy MMU mode. and she only says true if both of these things are true:

  1. we are not in interrupt context πŸ™…β€β™€οΈ
  2. lazy MMU mode is active for the current task πŸ’«

like, both boxes gotta be ticked. no shortcuts, no partial credit. it's giving "all conditions must pass" energy 😭

🌈 important note, bestie, do NOT skip this one: this function is intended for architectures that implement the lazy MMU mode, and it must not be called from generic code. like, that's not a suggestion, that's the rule. periodt. πŸ‘‘
