✨ kvmppc_gsm_refresh_info ✨

Okay so bestie, this is the manual page for kvmppc_gsm_refresh_info — a kernel API function that deserialises from a guest state buffer 💅. Like, it takes the raw bytes sitting in the guest state buffer and turns them back into a usable message structure. No cap, it's giving "unpacking the vibe" energy.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int kvmppc_gsm_refresh_info (struct kvmppc_gs_msg *gsm, struct kvmppc_gs_buff *gsb);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• gsm — literally the self, the message struct that's getting refreshed ✨
• gsb — the buffer to serialise from, aka the source of the tea 🫖
