💅 svc_create_memory_pool(9) — Kernel API Manual energy ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is svc_create_memory_pool — no cap, she's the one who spins up a memory pool out of a reserved memory block 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

svc_create_memory_pool — literally here to create a memory pool from a reserved memory block, that's her whole thing 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct gen_pool * svc_create_memory_pool (struct platform_device *pdev ,
       struct stratix10_svc_sh_memory *sh_memory );

like, she takes two things and hands you back a struct gen_pool *. slay 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• pdev — pointer to service layer device. yes girl, the device one 👑
• sh_memory — pointer to service shared memory structure. the shared-memory bestie 💜

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

you get a pool allocated from the reserved memory block, or ERR_PTR on error 😭 — so like, check her before you go using her, iykyk 🌈
