✨ batadv_tt_init(9) ✨

okay so this is batadv_tt_init from section 9 of the Kernel API Manual — the kernel-functions girlies, not the command-line ones 💅 and bestie, she has ONE job and it's honestly kind of the origin story of the whole translation table. let's get into it 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

batadv_tt_init — initialise the translation table internals 💖

like, the setup arc. the part before the main character starts doing stuff. batadv_tt_init gets the translation table's insides ready to go ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int batadv_tt_init (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv );

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

  • bat_priv — the bat priv 👑 this is the struct holding all the mesh interface information, so like, every single thing about your mesh interface lives in here. she's not a small girlie, she's the whole vibe check 🫶

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 on success 🎉 slay, everything initialised
  • a negative error number if it fails 😭 so no cap, check the return value, bestie — it can genuinely come back negative on failure

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

she does NOT come alone, omg. the whole translation-table extended universe is here, and it lives in the kernel file ./net/batman-adv/translation-table.c 📁 — go read it, iykyk:

bestie reminder: the only thing this page promises is 0 on success or a negative error number on failure — don't go inventing other return values, that's not the vibe 🙈

k that's the whole page, mwah 💋 this one came from ./net/batman-adv, dated October 2026 — go ship it, ily, bye 🧚💜
