telemetry_g...ce_verbosity(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

telemetry_get_trace_verbosity — bestie, this is the one that gets the IOSS & PSS Trace verbosity for you ✨ (and yes, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, iykyk 💅)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int telemetry_get_trace_verbosity (enum telemetry_unit telem_unit , u32
*verbosity );

okay so it's giving "hand me the unit, hand me a pointer, I'll fill it in" energy 🔥

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• telem_unit — tells the function whether you want an IOSS read or a PSS read 👑 you gotta pick, no vibes-based guessing.
• verbosity — a pointer, and the verbosity literally gets returned through it 💖 so make sure it's a real pointer, bestie, no cap.

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• 0 — slay, success 🎉
• < 0 — it's giving failure 😭 anything less than zero means it did not eat.
