💅 generic_fill...tomic_writes(9) — straight from the Kernel API Manual 🫶

okay bestie, gather round the group chat: this page is all about generic_fill_statx_atomic_writes, and it’s giving “tiny helper with a very specific job” energy ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

generic_fill_statx_atomic_writes — fill in atomic writes statx attributes 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void generic_fill_statx_atomic_writes (struct kstat *stat , unsigned int
unit_min , unsigned int unit_max , unsigned int unit_max_opt );

She’s void, so no return value is coming back — she just fills stuff in, periodt 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• stat — where to fill in the attribute flags 🫶
• unit_min — minimum supported atomic write length in bytes
• unit_max — maximum supported atomic write length in bytes
• unit_max_opt — optimised maximum supported atomic write length in bytes ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so the whole vibe: fill in the STATX{_ATTR}_WRITE_ATOMIC flags in the kstat structure from the atomic write unit_min and unit_max values. That’s the assignment, and she ate 🔥

bestie reminder: the flag name is literally written with that curly set notation — STATX{_ATTR}_WRITE_ATOMIC — so don’t go “fixing” it, iykyk 👑
