💅 calipso_doi_search — the calipso_doi_search(9) glow-up 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to calipso_doi_search(9), which lives in the Kernel API Manual and is genuinely one of the more chill functions in ./net/ipv6/calipso.c. it's giving "small function, big responsibilities" and honestly? we love her for it. let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

calipso_doi_search — literally searches for a DOI definition. that's the whole vibe. 🔍

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct calipso_doi * calipso_doi_search (u32 doi );

like yes, that's it, that's the whole signature, and it's iconic 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • doi — the DOI you're searching for 🎯 that's the one, that's the target, no cap.

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the tea ☕ — it searches the DOI definition list for a DOI definition whose DOI value matches doi. think of it like scrolling the group chat for that one specific message 🫶

⚠️ real talk though: the caller is responsible for calling rcu_read_[un]lock. that's on you, bestie. not her job, not her problem, don't come for her later 💀

it returns a pointer to the DOI definition on success and NULL on failure. that's the whole contract, and she sticks to it, fr fr 🌈
