dmmp_...t_new(3)

💖 dmmp_context_new — from the libdmmp manual (Device Mapper Multipath API) 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let's talk about dmmp_context_new ✨ this one's a lil baby function and it's literally so easy, you're gonna slay it.

---

✨ NAME ✨

dmmp_context_new — create a struct dmmp_context. that's it, that's the whole job 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct dmmp_context * dmmp_context_new (void);

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• void — no arguments. not a single one. she takes nothing and gives you everything 💅

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so when you spin up a brand new context, the default logging level (DMMP_LOG_PRIORITY_DEFAULT) is DMMP_LOG_PRIORITY_WARNING. what that means in real life: only warning and error messages get forwarded to the log handler function. like, she's not gonna yap about every little thing, only the stuff that matters 🔥

and the default log handler function? it prints log messages straight to STDERR. if that's not the vibe you want, no worries — you can change it with dmmp_context_log_func_set and set your own log handler 🫶

for the deets on all that, go check the manpage libdmmp.h(3), iykyk 📖

---

👑 RETURN 👑

you get back a pointer to 'struct dmmp_context' 💖

⚠️ bestie, important: that pointer should be freed by dmmp_context_free. don't just leave her out there, that's not main character energy, that's a leak 😭
