optee_supp_send(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… optee_supp_send β€” the Kernel API Manual moment bestie, section 9, let's GO πŸŽ€

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, section 9 of the manual, living your main character life. That's where optee_supp_send(9) hangs out β€” this is literally the function that sends the result of a request from the supplicant back where it belongs. ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int optee_supp_send (struct tee_context *ctx , u32 ret , u32 num_params
, struct tee_param *param );

Yes bestie, that's the whole signature, copied exactly, no cap. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • ctx β€” the context sending the result. It's giving "who's doing the sending" energy. πŸ’…
  • ret β€” the return value of the request. The receipts, if you will. 🧾
  • num_params β€” how many parameters came back. Count 'em, queen. πŸ”’
  • param β€” the actual returned parameters. The whole point, honestly. πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So what does it do? Literally this: it returns 0 on success, or <0 on failure. That's it, that's the vibe check. 😭

Like, no complicated lore here β€” zero means we slayed, anything below zero means something went sideways. Periodt. πŸ’€

πŸŽ€ SEE ALSO πŸŽ€

  • The kernel file ./drivers/tee/optee/supp.c β€” go read it, it's iconic πŸ“–
  • optee_supp_thrd_req(9) β€” the sibling you need to know about 🫢
  • optee_supp_recv(9) β€” the other half of the friendship duo πŸ’œ

🌈 the cute sign-off 🌈

This absolute banger lives in ./drivers/tee/optee, it's stamped with October 2026, and it goes by optee_supp_send(9). Slay, bye bestie! πŸ’…βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈπŸ‘‘
