pt_load_entry_raw(9)

💅 pt_load_entry_raw

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this is the page for pt_load_entry_raw, and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big main character energy". no cap. 🫶

---

🌸 NAME

pt_load_entry_raw — read from the location that pts points at, right into the pts 💖

literally what it says on the tin, bestie. it goes and grabs the thing and drops it in place. iconic.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS

enum pt_entry_type pt_load_entry_raw (struct pt_state *pts );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• pts — the table index to load. that's the vibe check target, that's the whole assignment. 🦋

---

💜 DESCRIPTION

so what happens is: it returns the type of entry that got loaded ✨ — like, the actual enum pt_entry_type, the whole point of the function, the moment.

and then pts->entry gets filled in with that entry's content 💖 so you don't just learn what it is, you also get the goods. best of both worlds, fr fr.

also: see pt_load_entry 👀 — that's your other reference, iykyk.

no guessing, babe — the description says exactly this and nothing more. pts->entry gets the content, the return value gets the type. periodt. 💅
