gfs2_glock_holder_ready(9)

💅 gfs2_glock_holder_ready

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (gfs2_glock_holder_ready(9)), and honestly? she's lowkey iconic for how much she does with so little. let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

gfs2_glock_holder_ready — bestie, the holder is ready and its error code can be collected ✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int gfs2_glock_holder_ready (struct gfs2_holder *gh );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• gh — the glock holder. that's her. that's the main character 💅

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so here's the vibe: you call gfs2_glock_holder_ready when a glock holder no longer needs to be waited for. why? because one of two things happened, and both of them are a whole mood:

• it's now held — meaning HIF_HOLDER is set, and gh_error == 0 😌✨
• or acquiring the lock has failed — meaning gh_error != 0 💀

either way, the waiting is over, so go ahead and collect that error code, no cap 🧚
