nft_pipapo_avx2_prepare(9) 💅

Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the page for nft_pipapo_avx2_prepare, and it is lowkey a tiny prep step with main-character energy. ✨

💖 NAME 💖

nft_pipapo_avx2_prepare — Prepare before main algorithm body 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void nft_pipapo_avx2_prepare (void );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• void — no arguments. Not a single one, bestie. The void is doing the whole cast. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what does this icon actually do? It zeroes out ymm15, no cap. That zeroed-out ymm15 is later used whenever we need to clear a memory location, by storing its content into memory. That's the whole vibe check: prep first, slay later. 💅
