pt_item_oa(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so bestie, meet pt_item_oa(9) from the Kernel API Manual ✨ — it's literally the Output Address for this leaf item 💅 lowkey iconic.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

pt_oaddr_t pt_item_oa (const struct pt_state *pts );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• pts — the item to query, bestie 💖 this is the thing you're asking about

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

It returns the output address for this item — yes, the whole point, no cap 🫶. If the item is part of a contiguous entry, it returns the value of the OA for this individual sub item. So you get that specific sub item's OA, not a group-chat blur, okay? 💅

See pt_entry_oa 👀. The format should implement one of these two functions depending on how it stores the OA's in the table. iykyk — this is the vibe check for how the table holds its OA's.
