kvmppc_gsp_for_each(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 kvmppc_gsp_for_each — NAME

okay so kvmppc_gsp_for_each is the macro that walks the <guest state IDs, guest state element> pairs for you, one iconic little duo at a time ✨ (yes bestie, that's a literal kvmppc_gsp_for_each(9) moment, it's the Kernel API Manual, section 9, we're fancy here)

🎀 SYNOPSIS

kvmppc_gsp_for_each (gsp , iden , gse );

that's the whole vibe — three things in, no return value drama 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS

  • gsp — the guest state buffer bitmap, aka the main character that knows which guest state IDs even matter 🫶
  • iden — the current guest state ID, like the "you are here" sticker on the loop ✨
  • gse — the guest state element you're currently looking at, the prize inside the loop iteration 🎁

🦋 SEE ALSO

okay this list is long but every single one is required reading, no skipping, iykyk 😭💖

  • the kernel file itself: ./arch/powerpc/include/asm/guest-state-buffer.h — literally the source of truth, go look 👀

and then the struct squad, all (9):

  • struct kvmppc_gs_part_table(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_proc_table(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_buff_info(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_header(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_elem(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_buff(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_bitmap(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_parser(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_msg_ops(9)
  • struct kvmppc_gs_msg(9)

now the gsb crowd (buffer-core besties) 🧚:

then the gse girlies (element-core behavior) 🌈:

the put-ers (yes, all of them, every single flavor) 💅:

the get-ers (matching set, slay symmetry) ⭐:

the bitmap + msg loopers 🎀:

and finally the data movers, the send/receive icons 👑:

not me ending with the sign-off but like, credit where it's due bestie: this gem lives over in ./arch/powerpc/include/asm, dated October 2026, and it's filed under kvmppc_gsp_for_each(9) in the Kernel API Manual. periodt. 💜
