HUGETLBFS_TEST_PATH(3)

✨ NAME ✨

hugetlbfs_test_path — bestie, this is the girl who tells you whether a mount point is hugetlbfs or not 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <hugetlbfs.h>

int hugetlbfs_test_path(const char *mount);

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so listen. The hugetlbfs_test_path() function is literally just doing a vibe check on a pathname — it figures out whether that given pathname lives inside a hugetlbfs filesystem or not. That's it. That's the whole job. She's not complicated, she just knows things 💖

🎀 RETURN VALUE 🎀

So here's the tea on what she hands back to you:

• 1 — slay, it is a hugetlbfs filesystem ✨
• 0 — nope, it's a non-hugetlbfs filesystem 🙈
• -1 — it went wrong 😭 and errno gets set appropriately, so go check on her

💀 ERRORS 💀

Not me listing them all out here — please go peek at statfs(3) for the possible values of errno, that's where the whole saga lives. 👑
