drbd_send_ack(9)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay so this page is drbd_send_ack(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and the name is literally giving: drbd_send_ack sends an ack packet. That's the whole assignment, bestie. No cap. 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Here's the exact signature, character for character:

int drbd_send_ack (struct drbd_peer_device *peer_device , enum
drbd_packet cmd , struct drbd_peer_request *peer_req );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

It takes three arguments, and yes we are going through every single one:

• peer_device — DRBD peer device. That's the peer-device main character right there. 💖
• cmd — packet command code. Literally the command code for the packet. ✨
• peer_req — peer request. The request hanging out with the peer. 🫶

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

The kernel file to peek at is ./drivers/block/drbd/drbd_main.c.
