idb_event Namespace Reference

## Detailed Description

IDB event group.

Some events are still in the processor group, so you will need to hook to both groups. These events do not return anything.

The callback function should return 0 but the kernel won't check it. Use the hook_to_notification_point() function to install your callback.
