tracing_on(9)

💅 tracing_on(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and it's about a lil function called tracing_on — and yes she's giving tiny-but-mighty main character energy 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

tracing_on — enable tracing buffers 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void tracing_on (void );

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• void — no arguments. nada. zero. she takes nothing, she gives everything 😌💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So basically, this function enables tracing buffers that may have been disabled with tracing_off. that's it, that's the whole vibe. she turns the tracing back ON, no cap 🔥

think of it like: someone hit tracing_off and killed the vibe, and tracing_on walks in like "not on my watch" and restores the buffers. iconic behaviour, honestly 👑
