kvmppc_gsb_paddress(9)

💖 NAME 💖

kvmppc_gsb_paddress — the physical address of buffer. okay so this is kvmppc_gsb_paddress(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the little function that gives you the buffer's physical address. slay. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u64 kvmppc_gsb_paddress (struct kvmppc_gs_buff *gsb );

bestie, it takes one argument and returns a u64. that's the whole vibe. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gsb — guest state buffer. that's the one and only argument, no cap. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Returns the physical address of the buffer. like, that's the entire plot: you hand it the gsb, it hands back the physical address, and the return type is u64 per the synopsis. iconic, honestly. 🌸

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
