resume(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay so bestie, this is resume(9) from the Kernel API Manual ✨ — and the name is literally doing the most: resume — resume execution of a task. That's the vibe 👑.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct task_struct * resume (struct task_struct *prev , struct
       task_struct *next , struct thread_info *next_ti );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• prev — the task that was previously executed.
• next — the task to begin executing.
• next_ti — task_thread_info(next).

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So whilst scheduling is happening, this function is used to save the context of prev & load the context of next. Then it returns prev — like, that's the whole plot 😭💅.
