vli_mod_inv(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, welcome to vli_mod_inv(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this page is literally all about Modular inversion ✨ no cap, that's the whole name vibe. It's giving tiny-but-iconic kernel math energy 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bestie, here's the exact signature — keep every space and comma exactly as shown 🫶:

void vli_mod_inv (u64 *result , const u64 *input , const u64 *mod ,
       unsigned int ndigits );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• result — where to write the vli number 💖 (the destination, the spot, the place it goes).
• input — the vli value to operate on, main character energy 🎀.
• mod — the modulus, periodt.
• ndigits — length of all vlis — yes, all of them, bestie 💅.

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

okay so if you wanna keep reading (and you should), the kernel file to peek at is ./include/crypto/internal/ecc.h — yes, that one 🦋. Here's the full squad, bestie:
