💅 batadv_tt_global_to_purge — check whether a global TT entry has to be purged

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes we're in kernel land today, and no it's not scary, i promise. this one's a lil translation-table helper that literally just looks at one entry and tells you if it's time to yeet it 🧹

🦋 NAME

batadv_tt_global_to_purge — check whether a global TT entry has to be purged

🎀 SYNOPSIS

bool batadv_tt_global_to_purge (struct batadv_tt_global_entry *tt_global
, char **msg );
ngl the line break in that synopsis is giving "my friend formatted this at 3am" but we keep it exactly as it is, periodt 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS

  • tt_global — the global TT entry under consideration 👀 like, this is the one we're vibe-checking
  • msg — storage for a pointer to a human readable reason on return 📝 so on the way out you can point at a lil string telling you why (iykyk, it's the receipts)

💖 RETURN

true if the entry should be purged because its roaming or temporary timer has elapsed ⏰🔥 — and false otherwise. that's it, that's the whole verdict, no cap.
