parse_delay_str(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to the parse_delay_str(9) page from the Kernel API Manual 🌸 — the name tea is literally: parse_delay_str — parse an unsigned decimal integer delay. No cap. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

       int parse_delay_str (const char *str , int ndecimals , const char
       *suffix , unsigned int *val );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• str — the string you're parsing, bestie. 🫶
• ndecimals — the number of decimal to scale up. ✨
• suffix — the suffix string to parse. 🦋
• val — where the parsed value gets stored. 💖

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So here's the whole vibe: you're parsing an unsigned decimal value in str, and it can optionally end with suffix. If str ends with suffix, the parsed value is stored in val just as it is — iconic, no scaling, periodt. Otherwise, the value is stored scaled up by 10^(ndecimal). 👑

It returns 0 on success, and a negative error code otherwise. That's the whole mood. 😭
