movz_func(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 movz_func — like, the Kernel API Manual page, bestie

okay so bestie, welcome to the movz_func glow-up ✨ this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's honestly short but it serves.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int movz_func (struct pt_regs *regs , u32 ir );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. two arguments, one int coming back at you 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • regs — the process register set 💜 like, the whole little wardrobe of registers this process is wearing rn.
  • ir — the instruction 🔥 the actual opcode-y moment we're out here emulating.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what does it do? it emulates a MOVZ instruction. iconic behavior, no notes 👑

and the return value? bestie. it returns 0. always. because it always succeeds 💀 like not to be dramatic but this function has never known failure in its life. main character energy fr fr.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

no cap, this is the friend group and they're all in the kernel file ./arch/mips/kernel/mips-r2-to-r6-emul.c 🌈 go say hi:

like, the whole squad. every single one. iykyk 💅

ok that's the page!! nothing scary in here, it literally cannot fail, so go forth and emulate 🧚

and that's a wrap, bestie 🍓 this one lives in ./arch/mips/kernel and it's dated October 2026 — so mark your calendar, kiss the manual goodbye, periodt 💖
