πŸ¦‹ struct futex_vector(9) πŸ¦‹

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9 β€” yes, the big-league kernel section, main character energy only πŸ’…. This page is literally all about struct futex_vector, and ngl it's a lil helper struct that does one job and does it slayfully ✨.


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

struct futex_vector β€” the auxiliary struct for futex_waitv(). That's it, that's the vibe πŸŽ€.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct futex_vector {
    struct futex_waitv w;
    struct futex_q q;
 };

🌸 Members 🌸

  • w β€” the userspace-provided data 🫢 (yes, the stuff that comes from you, the user)
  • q β€” the kernel-side data πŸ‘‘ (the kernel's own little stash)

🧚 Description 🧚

So basically this struct is the blueprint for building an array that holds, like, all the data you need for futex_waitv. That's the whole assignment, periodt πŸ”₯. It's giving "glue struct" and honestly? Iconic.
