✨ find_dirty_idx_leb(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual πŸ’… this one's a lil function page, and honestly? it's giving "small but mighty." let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

find_dirty_idx_leb β€” literally just: find a dirty index LEB. that's the whole assignment, no cap πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int find_dirty_idx_leb (struct ubifs_info *c );

yes the spacing is a lil quirky, that's how it's written, we don't touch it πŸ’€


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • c β€” the UBIFS file-system description object. it's the main character of this whole situation ngl πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea β˜• this function returns the LEB number when it succeeds, and a negative error code when it fails. like, that's the whole vibe check: number = slay, negative = not slay 😭

specifically β€” and this is important β€” -ENOSPC comes back if a dirty index LEB is not found. so if you see -ENOSPC, it's not a bug, it's just "girl, there isn't one" πŸ™ˆ

⚠️ fair warning bestie: this function scans the entire LPT. the whole thing. every last bit of it. but don't stress β€” it's called very rarely, so it's more of a special-occasion kinda function, not an everyday one 🌈

πŸŽ€ SEE ALSO πŸŽ€

and that's the page!! tysm for reading bestie, mwah πŸ’œ this lil gem comes to you from ./fs/ubifs, dated October 2026 β€” put it in your calendar, it's a whole era ⭐ byeee πŸ¦‹
