add_or_start_queue(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 add_or_start_queue 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil cutie from the UBIFS fam and honestly it's giving "small function, big responsibility" 🎀 let me put you on real quick 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

add_or_start_queue — literally just: add the current task in the queue, or start queuing. that's it. that's the whole vibe 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void add_or_start_queue (struct ubifs_info *c );

no return value, no drama, just vibes and a void 🦋

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • c — the UBIFS file-system description object 📁 like, this is the whole context bestie, everything happens through it 💜

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so here's the tea ☕ if queuing hasn't been started yet, this function starts queuing. and if it has already started? then it just adds the current task into the queue. like a bouncer at the club: if the line hasn't formed, congrats you're opening it 🌈; if it has, get in the back of the line bestie 🫶

no cap, that's the entire behaviour. it's giving switch-statement-with-extra-steps and we respect it 👑
