PUTTER(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to PUTTER(9) from the Kernel Developer's Manual 💖 this page is all about putter — the Pass-to-Userspace Transporter ✨

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the putter subsystem is literally used for request-response handling of userspace components 🫶 it currently provides routines for associating a file descriptor with a subsystem data structure instance and I/O routines.

users of the facility must fill out the callbacks in struct putter_ops to integrate with putter — that's the whole integration vibe check 👑

under construction 🚧 interfaces may and will change — like, for real, don't get too attached 😭
