DECLARE_IP_V..._BUCKETS_RCU(9)

✨ DECLARE_IP_V..._BUCKETS_RCU ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page out of the Kernel API Manual — yes, the kernel, like, the actual operating system guts 💅 — and it's a tiny one, but she's iconic in her own little way. It's section 9 (that's the kernel API section, iykyk). Buckle up, it's a short ride but we're gonna slay it 🎀

💖 NAME 💖

DECLARE_IP_VS_RHT_WALK_BUCKETS_RCU — literally just: Declare variables. That's the whole job. She declares things. Periodt ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

DECLARE_IP_VS_RHT_WALK_BUCKETS_RCU

no arguments, no parameters, no parentheses — she takes nothing and she gives everything 😌 it's giving main character macro energy, fr fr.

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the tea: this thing is the home of the variables for ip_vs_rht_walk_buckets_rcu 🫶

like, it's not out here doing the walking itself, no ma'am — it's the declaration spot, the lil setup moment so that ip_vs_rht_walk_buckets_rcu has variables to actually work with. think of it as the getting-ready-with-me of the ip_vs hash table world 💄 variables declared, vibe secured, no cap.

that's it. that's the description. short and sweet, like a text you send at 2am 🧚

heads up bestie: this page is genuinely just the declaration spot. it don't explain the internals, it don't give you examples. it points you at the squad above and says "go read those" 💀 and honestly? respect.

and that's the whole page, you ate that 🍓 this lil slice of the Kernel API Manual came straight out of ./include/net and she's dated October 2026 — the same title, DECLARE_IP_V..._BUCKETS_RCU(9), front and back, like a little matching set ✨ mwah, love that for us 💜🫶
