vringh_notify_disable_kern(9)

💖 vringh_notify_disable_kern 💖

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about vringh_notify_disable_kern(9) — bestie, we're going kernel-mode today, grab your bobа 🧋

✨ NAME ✨

vringh_notify_disable_kern — literally just "don't tell us if something changes." that's the whole vibe. we're turning the notifications OFF, no cap 🔕

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void vringh_notify_disable_kern (struct vringh *vrh );

it returns void, so like… no return value to obsess over. it just does the thing 🫶

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• vrh — the vring. that's it, that's the whole argument. the vring in question 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this is our normal running state — read that again: normal 😌 we disable the notifications, and then we only enable them again when we're going to sleep. it's giving "don't ping me unless i'm actually asleep and about to miss something" energy. main character boundary-setting, honestly 👑

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

the kernel file lives at ./drivers/vhost/vringh.c and it's got a whole friend group — here's the entire roster, no one left out, fr fr 🫶
