ssam_notifier_to_errno(9)

okay bestie, welcome to ssam_notifier_to_errno(9) from the Kernel API Manual 🫶 this page is literally about converting a notifier return code into a standard error value, and yes it’s as niche and iconic as it sounds 💅

💅 NAME 💅

ssam_notifier_to_errno — Convert notifier return code to standard error value.

It’s giving “tiny translator energy”: notifier return code goes in, standard error value comes out. no cap. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ssam_notifier_to_errno (u32 ret );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ret — the notifier return value you’re converting, bestie. That’s the whole assignment 🎀

🔥 RETURN 🔥

It returns the negative error value encoded in ret, or 0 if ret indicates success. So: success signal means zero, and an encoded negative error means that’s what comes back. periodt 💖
