💅 bond_3ad_bind_slave (9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the <pink>Kernel API Manual</pink> entry for bond_3ad_bind_slave, and honestly? it's giving "small function, big responsibilities" and i'm kinda obsessed 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

bond_3ad_bind_slave — literally just initializes a slave's port. that's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void bond_3ad_bind_slave (struct slave *slave );

like yes that's it, no cap, that's the entire signature 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• slave — the slave struct you're working on. that's your main character right there, hand it over and let the function do its thing 🫶

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

0 on success, < 0 on error. that's it, that's the whole report card 📋✨ (so if you see a negative number bestie… something went sideways 😭)
