kvm_get_running_vcpus(9)

💅 kvm_get_running_vcpus(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so picture this: you're deep in KVM land, and you need to know which vcpu is currently running on each CPU. That's literally the whole vibe of kvm_get_running_vcpus — it hands you the per-CPU array of the vcpus that are running right now. Not a copy, not a snapshot, the actual per-CPU array. Iconic.

✨ NAME ✨

kvm_get_running_vcpus — get the per-CPU array of currently running vcpus. That's it, that's the whole job. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct kvm_vcpu * __percpu * kvm_get_running_vcpus (void );

Look at that return type ngl — struct kvm_vcpu * __percpu *. It's giving pointer-to-per-CPU-pointer-to-vcpu realness. Read it slowly, it slays once you do. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• void — no arguments. Zero. None. She takes nothing and gives you the array. A low-maintenance icon. ✨
