fscache_res...invalidation(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

fscache_resume_after_invalidation β€” bestie, this is the one that lets I/O resume after an invalidation. Like, the invalidation said "hold up βœ‹" and now we're saying "okay you may go again 🫢".

This is a page from the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, kernel land, yes it's giving main character energy, no cap.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void fscache_resume_after_invalidation (struct fscache_cookie *cookie );

That's it. That's the whole vibe. One function, one cookie, zero drama (well, mostly).


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • cookie β€” the cookie that was invalidated. Yeah, that exact one, the invalidated one. She's been through it, be nice to her πŸ“.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so here's the situation: you go tell fscache that the invalidation is sufficiently complete β€” like, complete enough β€” that I/O can be allowed again. That's the whole job. You're basically the friend who texts the group chat "ok we're good, everyone can come back in πŸ’–".

So the flow is: invalidation happens, I/O gets paused, and when you've decided the invalidation is far enough along, you call this and fscache goes "oh word? bet" and lets I/O through the door again.

No hidden lore. No extra params. Just the cookie. Slay ✨.
