batadv_v_ogm_queue_left(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 batadv_v_ogm_queue_left — check if given OGM still fits aggregation queue 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ yep you heard me, we're in the kernel API manual, and today's main character is batadv_v_ogm_queue_left(9) 🫶 she's a tiny little boolean checker and honestly she ate.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool batadv_v_ogm_queue_left (struct sk_buff *skb , struct
       batadv_hard_iface *hard_iface );

like, that's the whole vibe. she takes two things and gives you back a bool. no cap. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • skb — the OGM you wanna check 👀 that's the packet in question, bestie
  • hard_iface — the interface you'd be using to send that OGM out into the world 🌈

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the important bit, do not skip this: the caller needs to hold hard_iface->bat_v.aggr_list.lock 🔒 fr fr, that's on you, not on her. she's just doing her little check, she's not about to grab the lock for you, periodt.

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • returns True if the given OGMv2 packet still fits 😌✨
  • returns false otherwise 💀 (like, it doesn't fit, sad but we move)

💜 reminder bestie: hold that hard_iface->bat_v.aggr_list.lock before you call her. that's the whole assignment. don't make it weird. 🙈
