πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

optee_ffa_shm_pool_alloc_pages β€” bestie, this is the one that creates a page-based allocator pool ✨

So the full manual page title situation is optee_ffa_sh..._alloc_pages(9) and it lives in the Kernel API Manual, which like… okay, slay, that's the whole vibe up top πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct tee_shm_pool * optee_ffa_shm_pool_alloc_pages (void );

Like literally that's it. That's the whole call. Look at her go πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • void β€” no arguments, bestie. Zero. Nada. She takes nothing and she gives you a struct tee_shm_pool *. Iconic behaviour, honestly πŸ’…

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

Okay so here's the tea πŸ“ β€” this pool is the one you use with OP-TEE over FF-A. That's the whole context, iykyk.

And in this case? Command buffers and such get allocated from the kernel's own memory. Not from somewhere else. From the kernel's own memory. Periodt πŸ’€

That's genuinely the entire description, no cap. She's a simple girl with a simple job and she ate πŸ”₯
