batadv_mcast_tvlv_flags_get(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 batadv_mcast_tvlv_flags_get(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so real talk, this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey a little legend. It's batadv_mcast_tvlv_flags_get, and its whole main-character job is pulling the multicast flags out of an OGM TVLV. Iconic behavior, no notes. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

batadv_mcast_tvlv_flags_get — literally just get multicast flags from an OGM TVLV. That's the vibe. That's the whole thing. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u8 batadv_mcast_tvlv_flags_get (bool enabled , void *tvlv_value , u16 tvlv_value_len );

bestie look at that return type. u8. tiny. precious. a whole mood. 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • enabled — a bool, and it's answering the question "does the originator have multicast TVLV support enabled?" so basically a vibe check for the originator. ⭐
  • tvlv_value — the tvlv buffer that's holding the multicast flags. this is the lil container, treat it nice. 🌸
  • tvlv_value_len — the tvlv buffer length. yes it's a u16. yes it matters. 💅

👑 RETURN 👑

it hands you back the multicast flags for the given tvlv buffer. that's it, that's the payoff, and honestly? slay. 🔥

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
