💅 build_rdma_ctx(9) — the Kernel API Manual page, bestie edition 🎀

okay so picture this: you're deep in the Kernel API Manual and you hit build_rdma_ctx(9). No stress, I got you. This one's short, sweet, and honestly kinda iconic — it builds the RDMA transform negotiate response context. That's the whole vibe. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

build_rdma_ctx — build an RDMA transform negotiate response context 🫶

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

int build_rdma_ctx (struct smb2_neg_context *ctxt , unsigned long transform_ids );

that's literally it. she's compact. she's efficient. main character energy fr fr 🔥

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ctxt — the response context header you're gonna populate. like, you hand it over and it gets filled in. that's her job 💅
  • transform_ids — a bitmap of transforms that are common to both the client and the server. iykyk — it's the "what do we both speak" list, in bitmap form 🧚

👑 RETURN 👑

returns the encoded negotiate context length. that's the number you get back. no cap, that's the whole return value 📏

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the kernel file in question is ./fs/smb/server/smb2pdu.c, and here's the entire squad it rolls with — every single one, in order, because we don't do "etc." around here 💖

sixty entries, zero skips, we ate that 🍓

a little note from me to you: this page has no options, no environment variables, no exit statuses, no bugs section. it's just a function, two arguments, and a return value. sometimes simple is the slay 💀

and that's the page!! 💜 this cutie lives over in ./fs/smb/server, dated October 2026, and she answers to the name build_rdma_ctx(9) — go say hi to her siblings, they're all listed above 🎀✨🦋
