✨ NAME ✨

batadv_v_orig_dump_subentry - Dump an originator subentry into a message

Okay so bestie, this is the batadv_v_orig_dump_subentry(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the function that dumps an originator subentry into a message. Iconic behavior. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int batadv_v_orig_dump_subentry (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 , struct batadv_neigh_node *neigh_node , bool best );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• msg — the Netlink message you're dumping into, bestie. That's the whole vibe. 💌
• portid — the port making the netlink request. 🫶
• seq — the sequence number of the netlink message. Gotta keep the order cute and correct. 🔢
• bat_priv — the bat priv with all the mesh interface information. It's giving "everything bagel" but for mesh info. 🥯
• if_outgoing — limit the dump to entries with this outgoing interface. Very "stay in your lane, but make it networking." 🚦
• orig_node — the originator to dump. Main character originator energy. 👑
• neigh_node — single hops neighbour. Say hi to the neighbor for me. 🏡
• best — is the best originator? Like, is this one the bestie of originators? 💅

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Error code, or 0 on success. So bestie: 0 means slay, anything else means check the error code. 😌
