💖 NAME 💖 — proc_uint_k2u_conv(9) in the Kernel API Manual

okay so bestie, this is the proc_uint_k2u_conv(9) page, and it is literally proc_uint_k2u_conv — Assign kernel value to a user space pointer. no cap, that's the whole vibe of the NAME section. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

like, here's the exact function signature, don't come for me:

int proc_uint_k2u_conv (ulong *u_ptr , const uint *k_ptr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• u_ptr — pointer to user space variable. that's the user-space side, bestie 💅
• k_ptr — pointer to kernel variable. the kernel-side bestie ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Uses READ_ONCE to assign value to u_ptr. periodt — that's the move. highkey iconic. 💜

👑 RETURN 👑

0 on success. that's it, that's the return. slay. ✨
