β¨ is_lazy_mmu_mode_active β¨
hey bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual π this one's a tiny little function but she's got opinions, okay? let's get into it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
is_lazy_mmu_mode_active β literally just checks if we're currently in lazy MMU mode rn. that's the whole vibe check π₯
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
bool is_lazy_mmu_mode_active (void );
π ARGUMENTS π
voidβ no arguments, bestie. none. zero. she takes nothing and she gives you abool. iconic behavior honestly β¨
π DESCRIPTION π
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:
- we are not in interrupt context π ββοΈ
- lazy MMU mode is active for the current task π«
like, both boxes gotta be ticked. no shortcuts, no partial credit. it's giving "all conditions must pass" energy π
π 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. π
