qid_eq(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so this is qid_eq — a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's literally just "test to see if to kquid values are the same" 💀 yes bestie the original page spells it "kquid" and "quid" in a couple spots — that's just how it's written, don't come for me, we're staying faithful 🙈

qid_eq — Test to see if to kquid values are the same ✨

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool qid_eq (struct kqid left , struct kqid right );

that's it. that's the whole function. two struct kqids walk in, a bool walks out 🎀

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• left — A qid value 🫶
• right — Another quid value (yes, "quid", that's what the page says, we are NOT editing the source material 💅)

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Return true if the two qid values are equal and false otherwise.

that's the entire bit. no cap. it's giving "tiny function, main character energy" 👑 like it does genuinely one (1) thing and it does it flawlessly. a vibe check for qids, fr fr 🌈

lowkey obsessed with how hard this page goes for such a small amount of code 😭
