💖 qcom_ice_generate_key(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for qcom_ice_generate_key — yes it's a real function name and yes it's iconic ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

qcom_ice_generate_key — literally the function that generates a wrapped key for inline encryption 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int qcom_ice_generate_key (struct qcom_ice *ice , u8
lt_key[BLK_CRYPTO_MAX_HW_WRAPPED_KEY_SIZE] );

like, look at that signature. so clean. so main character. 💅

---

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

• ice — the ICE driver data, obvs 🧊 (it's the context you're working with, and you will be passing it in)
• lt_key — the output buffer for the long-term wrapped key 🗝️ like, this is where the shiny new wrapped key gets dropped off

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So the whole vibe here: it uses HWKM to generate a brand new key, then hands it back to you as a long-term wrapped key. that's it. that's the function. no cap 🫶

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

On success you get the size of the resulting wrapped key (yes, the size, not the key itself, pay attention bestie 😭). On failure? -errno. classic. 💀
