in_wl_tree(9)
π in_wl_tree(9) β the wear-leveling tree vibe check
okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a short one but it's a real one. Buckle up π
β¨ NAME β¨
in_wl_tree β literally just checks if a wear-leveling entry is present in a WL RB-tree. that's it. that's the whole job. π¦
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int in_wl_tree (struct ubi_wl_entry *e , struct rb_root *root );
like, look at her. she takes two things and gives you back an int. iconic behavior honestly π
π ARGUMENTS π
eβ the wear-leveling entry you're checking on. the main character of this little investigation πrootβ the root of the tree. the tree in question. the one we're searching π³
β DESCRIPTION β
okay so here's the tea, and it's genuinely so simple i'm obsessed: this function returns non-zero if e is in the root RB-tree, and zero if it is not. that's the entire plot. no cap. πβ¨
like, it's giving "am i in the group chat or not" energy. one answer, two outcomes, zero drama π«Ά
