💅 batadv_choose_tt — Kernel API Manual, section 9 🎀

okay so real talk, bestie: this page is straight out of the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's about batadv_choose_tt. It's a little one, but she's important — she's the girl who decides where things go. main character energy, honestly. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

batadv_choose_tt — returns the index of the tt entry in the hash table. that's it, that's the whole vibe. no cap. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u32 batadv_choose_tt (const void *data , u32 size );

look at her. iconic signature. not me being obsessed with a u32 return type 😭

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • data — a pointer to the tt_common_entry object that you want to map, bestie. she gets hashed, that's her whole job. 🫶
  • size — the size of the hash table. like, how many buckets we're working with. pick your dance floor, girl. 💃

👑 RETURN 👑

she gives you back the hash index — the exact spot where the object that data points at should be stored. so like, data walks in and batadv_choose_tt is the bouncer going "you're at table this number." slay. 🌟
