✨ tick_nohz_idle_got_tick(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the <pink>Kernel API Manual</pink> entry for tick_nohz_idle_got_tick, and honestly? she's a tiny little function with main character energy. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

tick_nohz_idle_got_tick — legit just checks whether or not the tick handler has run. that's it. that's the whole job. icon behavior 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool tick_nohz_idle_got_tick (void );

so she's a bool-returning girlie, takes absolutely nothing, and gives you a yes-or-no vibe check ✨

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• void — no arguments. zero. nada. she needs nothing from you, she's self-sufficient like that 👑

---

🌈 RETURN 🌈

• true — the tick handler has run ✅

literally binary. no in-between, no situationship 💀
