🎀 cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm — NAME ✨

okay so bestie, this is cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm — it parses a CIPSO restricted bitmap tag 💅 and this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, so you know it's serious kernel business 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm (const struct cipso_v4_doi *doi_def , const
       unsigned char *tag , struct netlbl_lsm_secattr *secattr );

like, that's the whole signature, no cap 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • doi_def — the DOI definition 💖 literally the definition of the domain of interpretation, okay?
  • tag — the CIPSO tag 🏷️ the actual bytes we're looking at
  • secattr — the security attributes 🔐 this is where the parsed results go

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so the way this works is: you hand it a CIPSO restricted bitmap tag (that's tag type #1, iykyk ✨) and it parses that thing and returns the security attributes in secattr 🎀

and the return vibes? it returns zero on success, and negative values on failure 😭 so like, check your return value bestie, fr fr.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the kernel file is ./net/ipv4/cipso_ipv4.c and honestly the whole friend group is here 🫶 go read these:

💀 reminder bestie: zero is a slay, negatives are a no 💔 check your return values.

and that's the whole page fr — brought to you from ./net/ipv4, dated October 2026, page cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm(9) 💖 byeee, go parse some tags 🧚‍♀️✨
