kmsan_disable_current(9)

💅 kmsan_disable_current — a whole manual page, bestie

okay so welcome to the kmsan_disable_current page from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel-space girlies only 💖). this is a very short one, so grab your iced coffee and let's go ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

kmsan_disable_current — literally just "Disable KMSAN for the current task." that's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void kmsan_disable_current (void );

like, look at her. no arguments, no return value, no drama. main character energy but make it void 💅

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• void — no arguments. none. zero. the void is voiding 🙈

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

okay so here's the tea 🍓 — every single time you call kmsan_disable_current, you must follow it up with a kmsan_enable_current call. it's giving matched set, it's giving friendship bracelet, it's giving you cannot have one without the other 🫶

and the best part? these call pairs may be nested. so yes, you can go disable → disable → enable → enable and it's all good, like little russian dolls of KMSAN suppression 🧚✨

no cap though — don't leave a kmsan_disable_current hanging without its kmsan_enable_current. they come as a pair, periodt 💀
