okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” today's main character is ish_event_tracer(9), and she's literally the queen of getting your trace messages where they need to go πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

ish_event_tracer β€” no cap, this is the callback function that dumps your trace messages 🫢


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void ish_event_tracer (struct ishtp_device *dev , const char *format , ... );

that's it, that's the whole vibe check β€” a void return, three-ish arguments, and she's ready to slay πŸ’…


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • dev β€” the ishtp device, aka the whole reason she's here πŸ’œ
  • format β€” a printf style format, so you already know the drill, iykyk πŸ“
  • ... β€” variable arguments, the little squad of extras that tag along with the format 🌈

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

so what does she actually do? she's a callback β€” a function you hand over so somebody else can call it later (iconic behaviour, honestly) β€” and her whole job is to direct log messages into the Linux trace buffers πŸ”₯

literally all she does is route those messages. no extra steps, no surprises. ate and left no crumbs πŸ’…βœ¨
