tee_protmem...c_pool_alloc(9)

💖 tee_protmem_static_pool_alloc — like, the Kernel API Manual page ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to tee_protmem...c_pool_alloc(9) from the Kernel API Manual, we're literally in the <rainbow>kernel API manual</rainbow> rn and this one is a lil niche but so good. iykyk 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

tee_protmem_static_pool_alloc — create a protected memory manager 💅 (yes that's the whole job, and yes she eats)

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct tee_protmem_pool * tee_protmem_static_pool_alloc (phys_addr_t paddr , size_t size );

like — she takes two args and hands you back a struct tee_protmem_pool *. no cap. 🦋

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• paddr — the physical address where the pool starts, fr fr. that's the beginning of the vibe.
• size — how big the pool is, measured in bytes. the whole size in bytes situation. 🍓

---

🧚 RETURN 🧚

you get a pointer to a 'struct tee_protmem_pool' … or an ERR_PTR if it failed 😭 so like, check that pointer, bestie, don't just rawdog it into the next function. errors are giving plot twist energy and you need to catch them 💀
