📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 tomoyo_get_group ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one's a lil function from the TOMOYO security subsystem and she's honestly kinda iconic 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

tomoyo_get_group — Allocate memory for "struct tomoyo_path_group"/"struct tomoyo_number_group".

like literally she's the girl who books the venue for the group 💖 (the memory kind, not the chat kind)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct tomoyo_group * tomoyo_get_group (struct tomoyo_acl_param *param ,
       const u8 idx );

look at her, two params, one pointer returned — main character energy fr fr 👑

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • param — Pointer to "struct tomoyo_acl_param". this is the lil bundle of info she needs, no cap 💅
  • idx — Index number. yep that's it, just the index 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

Returns pointer to "struct tomoyo_group" on success, NULL otherwise.

that's the whole vibe honestly — you give her the params, she gives you the pointer. slay ✨ but also she can just hand you a NULL if things don't work out, so do the vibe check on that return value bestie, fr fr 🙈
