💅 batadv_v_ogm_process_per_outif(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment ✨

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the title up top is this cut-off little legend: batadv_v_ogm...ss_per_outif(9) — yes it's truncated, yes it's giving "name too long for the header, but make it fashion" 🎀 the full glow-up name is down in the synopsis, don't worry.

✨ NAME ✨

batadv_v_ogm_process_per_outif — it processes a batman v OGM for an outgoing if 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void batadv_v_ogm_process_per_outif (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv,
const struct ethhdr *ethhdr,
const struct batadv_ogm2_packet *ogm2,
struct batadv_orig_node *orig_node,
struct batadv_neigh_node *neigh_node,
struct batadv_hard_iface *if_incoming,
struct batadv_hard_iface *if_outgoing);

it's a void function, so no return value to stress about — she does her thing and dips, periodt 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

here's the whole cast, main character energy each and every one:

  • bat_priv — the bat priv with all the mesh interface information 👑 this is the one holding all the mesh iface tea
  • ethhdr — the Ethernet header of the OGM2 🎀
  • ogm2 — OGM2 structure, literally the packet itself
  • orig_node — Originator structure for which the OGM has been received 🦋
  • neigh_node — the neigh_node through which the OGM has been received
  • if_incoming — the interface where this packet was received 🌸
  • if_outgoing — the interface for which the packet should be considered ⭐ (this is the "per outif" of it all, iykyk)
