scsw_cstat(9)

💅 scsw_cstat — the scsw_cstat(9) glow-up

okay so real talk, bestie: we're in the Kernel API Manual, and this page is about one tiny little function that's lowkey carrying the whole cstat situation. no cap. let's go 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

scsw_cstat — bestie, it returns the scsw cstat field. that's it. that's the whole job. and she ate 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u32 scsw_cstat (union scsw *scsw );

like, look at her. one argument. no drama. returns a u32. iconic.

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• scsw — a pointer to scsw, obviously. literally just hand her the pointer and she'll do the rest. she's not nosy, she's helpful 💖

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so this is the part where it gets cute: scsw_cstat returns the value of the cstat field of the specified scsw, regardless of whether it's a transport mode or command mode scsw ✨

read that again. regardless. she does not care which mode you're in, she is not doing a vibe check on your struct, she's just giving you the cstat value. periodt. 👑

ngl there is no warning on this page, she's a good girl, she just returns a u32 and minds her business 🧚

sign-off time bestie 🍓 this little page lives at ./arch/s390/include/asm, the version/date vibe on it is October 2026, and the manual it's chilling in is scsw_cstat(9). mwah. go forth and read your cstat field 💜🌸✨
