okay bestie, so like β this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's about ns_to_kernel_old_timeval. tiny function, huge glow-up energy, let's get into it π

ns_to_kernel_old_timeval β Convert nanoseconds to timeval
literally what it says on the tin, no cap π«Ά

struct __kernel_old_timeval ns_to_kernel_old_timeval (s64 nsec );
that's it. that's the whole signature. one arg, one return, iconic behaviour honestly π
