add_to_bin(9)

add_to_bin(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to this Kernel API Manual entry — it's giving extremely specific placement energy, and honestly? iconic. No cap, we're about to make add_to_bin make sense. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

add_to_bin — put a data_vio in a specific packer_bin in which it will definitely fit. The way that this function just places a data_vio in a bin it definitely fits in? Obsessed. Slay. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature, verbatim, because we do not mess with code:

void add_to_bin (struct packer_bin *bin , struct data_vio *data_vio );

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• bin — the bin in which to put the data_vio. That's the destination bin, bestie. The one receiving the vibe. ✨
• data_vio — the data_vio to add. That's the little data guy going into the bin. 💖

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

Kernel file: ./drivers/md/dm-vdo/packer.c — yes, that's the spot. 🌸
