sysmon_probe(9)

💅 sysmon_probe — probe sys_mon channel 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the sysmon_probe(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's short and sweet, like a little function snack 🍓

---

✨ NAME ✨

sysmon_probe — probe sys_mon channel

like, it goes and finds the sys_mon channel and does the whole probe thing 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int sysmon_probe (struct rpmsg_device *rpdev );

that's it. one arg. one int coming back. iconic 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• rpdev — the rpmsg device handle. yeah, that one. your little device friend that's getting probed 😭

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the vibe: sysmon_probe goes and finds the sysmon context that's associated with the ancestor remoteproc, and then it assigns this rpmsg device with said sysmon context ✨

that's literally the whole thing. find the context, hand it to the rpmsg device. no cap, that's the assignment 👑

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• 0 on success — slay 💖
• negative errno on failure — not slay, but you'll deal 😭
