💅 ssh_packet_priority_get_base(9) — Kernel API Manual

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a tiny little icon — a one-function wonder that lives in the kernel headers and does exactly one (1) thing. no cap. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME

ssh_packet_priority_get_base — Get base priority from packet priority.

like, that's the whole job. it reads a packet priority and hands you back the base priority hiding inside it. lowkey elegant 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS

u8 ssh_packet_priority_get_base (u8 priority );

two u8s and a dream, fr fr 🎀

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• priority — The packet priority. that's it, that's the input, she's giving one-parameter main character energy 👑

---

🦋 RETURN

Returns the base priority encoded in the given packet priority. so you hand her a packet priority, she hands you back the base priority that was encoded in it — in and out, no drama, no side quests 💫

🔥 SEE ALSO

okay this is the part where the whole friend group shows up 😭 all of these live in the kernel file ./include/linux/surface_aggregator/serial_hub.h, and honestly? the guest list is kind of iconic:

every single one of them is in ./include/linux/surface_aggregator/serial_hub.h, so go say hi 💜

and that's the whole page, bestie 🌈 this lil legend comes from ./include/linux/surface_aggreg... and she's stamped October 2026, filed under ssh_packet_p...ity_get_base(9) — she may have a truncated name but she's got a full heart 💖 periodt.
