STRUCT AUXTRACE_INDEX_ENTRY(9)

🌈 struct auxtrace_index_entry(9) 🌈

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, this is from the Kernel API Manual, and the manual-name moment is literally struct auxtrace_index_entry(9) — iconic. The whole vibe? It indexes a AUX area tracing event within a perf.data file. no cap, that's the entire job and it ate. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here’s the struct exactly, bestie — do not improvise the fields:

struct auxtrace_index_entry {
    u64 file_offset;
    u64 sz;
 };

🎀 Members 🎀

• file_offset — offset within the perf.data file. literally where it sits in the file, iykyk. 🦋
• sz — size of the event. the way it just says how big the event is, obsessed. 🍓
