trace_seq_bitmask_list(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to trace_seq_bitmask_list(9) from the Kernel API Manual ✨ this is the page where a bitmask gets its cute list-era moment 💅

🎀 NAME 🎀

trace_seq_bitmask_list — write a bitmask array in its list representation 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void trace_seq_bitmask_list (struct trace_seq *s , const unsigned long
*maskp , int nmaskbits );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• s — trace sequence descriptor, aka the spot where the output goes 🫶
• maskp — points to an array of unsigned longs that represent a bitmask 💖
• nmaskbits — the number of bits that are valid in maskp ⭐

💫 DESCRIPTION 💫

It writes a list representation — like 0-3,5-7 — of a bitmask string into s. no cap, that’s the whole vibe 😭👑
