memzero_bvec(9)
π NAME π
memzero_bvec(9) β zero all data in a bvec. This is from the Kernel API Manual, and yes bestie, it's giving βtiny but important kernel helperβ energy. β¨
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void memzero_bvec (struct bio_vec *bvec );
π ARGUMENTS π
bvecβ the bvec to zero. This is the thing getting zeroed out, periodt. π«Ά
π DESCRIPTION π
Okay so the whole vibe: memzero_bvec zeroes all the data in a bvec. But there is a rule, and it is not optional: it must be called on single-page bvecs only. Single-page. Only. No multi-page chaos, no guessing, no βmaybe itβll workβ energy. π This is a hard requirement, so respect it fr fr.
