tpm_buf_append_handle(9)

✨ tpm_buf_append_handle ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for tpm_buf_append_handle — it's a little one, but it absolutely ate 💅

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

tpm_buf_append_handle — literally just add a handle 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void tpm_buf_append_handle (struct tpm_buf *buf , u32 handle );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• buf — your tpm_buf instance. the main character, the buffer we're talking to 👜
• handle — a TPM object handle. that's the thing getting added, no cap ✨

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the vibe: this function adds a handle to the buffer, and — this is the important bit — it also bumps up the count that's tracking how many handles are chilling in the command buffer 🔥

heads up bestie: it works only for command buffers, so don't come at it with anything else, fr fr 🙈
