show_one_worker_pool(9)

💅 show_one_worker_pool(9) — like, the whole Kernel API Manual moment ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to show_one_worker_pool, straight out of the Kernel API Manual 🎀 this is a little kernel function that dumps the state of a worker pool you point at, and honestly? it's giving "let me spill the tea about this one specific pool" energy. no cap. 💖

---

✨ NAME ✨

show_one_worker_pool — dumps the state of the specified worker pool 🫶

like, you hand it a pool, it prints out everything going on in there. that's the whole vibe check. 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void show_one_worker_pool (struct worker_pool *pool );

that's it, that's the whole signature. returns void, so don't go looking for a return value, bestie, there isn't one 😭

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• pool — the worker pool whose state will be printed 💅 literally just point at the pool you want the state of, and it prints it. main character pool only, no group shots.
