STRUCT KVMPPC_GS_HEADER(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, this is struct kvmppc_gs_header — the serialized guest state buffer header — straight out of the Kernel API Manual ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

the shape of it is literally this, no cap:

struct kvmppc_gs_header {
    __be32 nelems;
    char data[];
};

🫶 Members 🫶

• data — the start of the stream of elements in the buffer. that's the member the page calls out, bestie 💅
