πŸ’… isst_store_cmd(9) β€” the kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to the isst_store_cmd page ✨ this one lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and honestly? it's short, it's sweet, and it's about to be your new fave little hash-table helper. no cap. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

isst_store_cmd β€” store a command into a hash table πŸ—‚οΈπŸ’–

like, literally just yeet the command into the hash table. that's the whole vibe.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int isst_store_cmd (int cmd , int sub_cmd , u32 cpu , int mbox_cmd_type
, u32 param , u64 data );

six args, one int coming back at you. she's compact, she's focused, she knows what she wants 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

okay so here's the roster, no skips, no cuts πŸ‘‘

  • cmd β€” the Mailbox command. this is the main character of the whole call tbh πŸ‘‘
  • sub_cmd β€” the Mailbox sub-command or the MSR id. yes, it's giving dual purpose. iykyk πŸ’…
  • cpu β€” the target CPU for the command. gotta know which cpu we're talking to, fr fr 🎯
  • mbox_cmd_type β€” tells you whether this is a Mailbox command or an MSR command. pick a lane bestie 🌈
  • param β€” the Mailbox parameter πŸ“
  • data β€” the Mailbox request data or the MSR data. again with the either/or, she contains multitudes ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

here's the tea β˜• β€” isst_store_cmd stores the command into a hash table if there's no such command already stored. so if it's new, it goes in. simple. iconic. πŸ’…

but if the command is already stored? then it just updates the latest parameter and data for that command. no duplicate entries, no drama, just a glow-up on the existing one πŸ”₯

so basically: first time β†’ insert. next time β†’ update. she's efficient like that 🧚


⭐ RETURN ⭐

the return value is the result of the store to the hash table:

  • 0 β†’ success, we ate πŸ’–βœ…
  • others β†’ failure πŸ˜­πŸ’€

that's it, that's the whole return contract. 0 is the good one, everything else is a no from her πŸ™ˆ
