🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay bestie, you're reading the Kernel API Manual page for vdo_enter_recovery_mode(9) — yes, the whole long iconic name. Here's the official name-line vibe:

vdo_enter_recovery_mode — Put the vdo into recovery mode.

That's it. That's the assignment. She ate, no crumbs. 💅✨

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

Here's the exact call, bestie — copy it character for character, because we do not freestyle signatures:

void vdo_enter_recovery_mode (struct vdo *vdo );

That's the whole synopsis. No hidden extras, no surprise return value, fr fr. 🫶

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

One argument, and she's carrying the whole page:

• vdo — the vdo. That's the entire description. The vdo. Periodt. 🎀
