---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u32 ps3_get_ctr_size (u32 cpu , u32 phys_ctr );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• cpu — -- undescribed -- 🙈 like the manual literally does not describe it, so I'm not gonna make something up, that's not the vibe.
• phys_ctr — -- undescribed -- 😭 same situation, no description in the source, so we keep it 100 and say nothing more.

ngl bestie, both arguments are listed as -- undescribed -- in the original. Not me inventing details 💀 we do NOT do that here.

---

Returns either 16 or 32. That's it, that's the whole description, and honestly? iconic. no cap, she's a short queen ✨
