xe_lrc_timestamp(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… xe_lrc_timestamp(9) β€” like, the current lrc timestamp, bestie

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (fancy, I know πŸ‘‘) and it's all about xe_lrc_timestamp, which literally just hands you the current lrc timestamp. that's it. that's the vibe. ✨


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u64 xe_lrc_timestamp (struct xe_lrc *lrc );

yes she returns a u64 and yes she takes exactly one arg. iconic signature, no notes. πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • lrc β€” pointer to the lrc. that's the whole thing. just a pointer. to the lrc. 🫢

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so the function returns the latest lrc timestamp. easy enough, right?

but here's the tea β˜• β€” with support for active contexts/queues, the calculation may be slightly racy 😭 so you gotta follow a read-again logic to make sure the context/queue is still active before you return the right timestamp. no cap, that's the important bit. don't skip the re-check, bestie, or you'll get a timestamp that's giving stale energy πŸ’€


⭐ RETURN ⭐

the new lrc timestamp value. that's it. that's the return. slay. πŸ’…

like, the whole lrc friend group showed up to the party πŸŽ‰ iykyk.


k bye bestie, go read your timestamps responsibly πŸ’œ
