__update_selected(9)

🦋 __update_selected(9) 🦋

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes it's giving serious business, but honestly this one is kinda cute once you get it 💅

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

__update_selected — the little function that updates a port's Selected variable based on a lacpdu we just received 💌

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void __update_selected (struct lacpdu *lacpdu , struct port *port );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• lacpdu — literally the lacpdu we've received, the whole reason we're here 🫶
• port — the port we're looking at, main character energy tbh 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So what this does is update the value of the selected variable, using parameter values from a newly received lacpdu. Like, fresh off the wire ✨

Here's the vibe: the parameter values for the Actor carried in the received PDU get compared with the corresponding operational parameter values for the port's partner. Very side-by-side, very comparison-core 🌈

And if one or more of the comparisons shows that the value(s) received in the PDU differ from the current operational values? Then selected gets set to FALSE and actor_oper_port_state.synchronization gets set to out_of_sync. Not me breaking the news 😭💀

Otherwise — and this is the chill path — selected remains unchanged. Slay, nothing to do 🎀

ngl, the whole thing hinges on those comparisons, so if the values match up, we just vibe and leave selected alone. No cap.
