# I don't really know what to write for this readme.

## So here is the entirity of this library's source code:

``` rust
#![no_std]

use core::arch::asm;
/// Gets the instruction pointer to the exact next instruction.
#[inline(always)]

pub fn get_ip() -> usize {
    let ip: usize;
    unsafe {
        asm!(
            "lea {0}, [rip]", 
            out(reg) ip
        );
    }
    ip
}
/// Sets the current value of the instruction pointer to addr.
#[inline(always)]

pub unsafe fn set_ip(addr: usize) -> ! {
    unsafe{
        asm!(
        "jmp {0}",
        in(reg) addr,
        options(noreturn)
        );
    }
}
