✨ gfs2_rbm_add(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

💖 NAME 💖

gfs2_rbm_add — add a number of blocks to an rbm. That's the whole name, bestie. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool gfs2_rbm_add (struct gfs2_rbm *rbm , u32 blocks );

That's the signature, copied exactly — no edits, no vibes-based renaming. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • rbm — the rbm with rgd already set correctly. Like, rgd is already handled, so don't come for me about setup, iykyk. 👑
  • blocks — the number of blocks to add to rpm. And yes, the original says rpm here, not rbm — I'm not "fixing" it, bestie 😭.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Okay so this function takes an existing rbm structure and adds a number of blocks to it. That's it. It's giving "small utility, main character energy" — literally take the existing rbm, add blocks, done. ✨

🔥 RETURN 🔥

It returns true if the new rbm would point past the end of the rgrp. That's the boundary-case vibe check right there — if it's past the end, it's true, periodt. 👑

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
