📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

Bestie, meet batadv_v_orig_dump_entry(9) from the Kernel API Manual — the page for Dump an originator entry into a message. It’s giving netlink-dump main character energy, and we’re obsessed. 💅✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

Here’s the signature, copied exactly, no cap:

int batadv_v_orig_dump_entry (struct sk_buff *msg , u32 portid , u32 seq
, struct batadv_priv *bat_priv , struct batadv_hard_iface *if_outgoing ,
struct batadv_orig_node *orig_node , int *sub_s );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • msg — the Netlink message you’re dumping into. Slay.
  • portid — the port making the netlink request. iykyk.
  • seq — the sequence number of the netlink message. Gotta keep the order, fr fr.
  • bat_priv — the bat priv with all the mesh interface information. It’s got the lore.
  • if_outgoing — limit the dump to entries with this outgoing interface. Filtering queen.
  • orig_node — the originator to dump. Main character originator.
  • sub_s — number of sub entries to skip. Skip, don’t scroll.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Like, that is the vibe check. Hold the lock, bestie. Do not come in here pretending. 💀

⭐ RETURN ⭐
