🦋 batadv_tt_global_dump_bucket — Kernel API Manual (section 9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 💖 the title up top gets truncated to batadv_tt_gl..._dump_bucket(9) because terminal headers are dramatic like that, but the real name is batadv_tt_global_dump_bucket(9) and we're gonna learn it together, no cap 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

batadv_tt_global_dump_bucket — dump one TT local bucket into a message 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int batadv_tt_global_dump_bucket (struct sk_buff *msg , u32 portid , u32
seq , struct batadv_priv *bat_priv , struct hlist_head *head , int
*idx_s , int *sub );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• msg — the netlink message we're dumping into 🎁 (it's the canvas, we're the artist)
• portid — the port making the netlink request, iykyk 👑
• seq — the sequence number of the netlink message, so everybody knows which request is which 🔢
• bat_priv — the bat priv holding all the mesh interface information 🦇 like, the whole vibe of the mesh lives in here
• head — pointer to the list containing the global TT entries 📋
• idx_s — number of entries to skip ⏭️
• sub — number of entries to skip ⏭️ (yeah, same description as idx_s, the docs said what they said, I'm just relaying it fr fr)

⭐ RETURN ⭐

An error code, or 0 on success 🌈 — 0 is the slay outcome, anything else is the 😭 outcome.

okay that was a LOT of cross-references but we got through it together 🫶 don't skip any of them, they're all part of the family.

that's the whole page bestie!! 💖 this cutie comes to you from ./net/batman-adv, dated October 2026, and yes the header version is still wearing its truncated batadv_tt_gl..._dump_bucket(9) name tag because it's quirky like that 🎀✨ periodt.
