💅 papr_rtas_blob_extend(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes this is the actual manual-page section name, we're fancy like that 🎀 — and today's main character is papr_rtas_blob_extend, a little legend from the PowerPC pseries corner of the kernel. pull up a chair, this one's short and sweet 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

papr_rtas_blob_extend — literally just appends data to a &struct papr_rtas_blob. that's it. that's the whole vibe. slay 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int papr_rtas_blob_extend (struct papr_rtas_blob *blob , const char
*data , size_t len );

no cap, that's the exact signature, spaces and all. don't @ me, that's just how it's written 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• blob — the blob you're extending, bestie. the glow-up recipient. the blob in question 🫶
• data — the shiny new data being appended to blob. fresh content, just dropped ✨
• len — the length of data. gotta know how much newness you're bringing 💖

---

💀 CONTEXT 💀

may sleep 😴

fr fr, it can sleep — so don't go calling this from somewhere spicy like an atomic context. the kernel will be Big Mad. iykyk 🙈

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• -ENOMEM if the allocation fails 😭 (out of memory, we've all been there)
• 0 otherwise 🎉 — that's your slay result
