inode_fix_size(9)

✨ inode_fix_size — that's the manual 💅

Hey bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for inode_fix_size(9). It's giving very niche, very kernel-internals, and honestly we're obsessed. 🎀 Cozy up, this one's short but iconic.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

inode_fix_size — literally just fix inode size. No cap. That's the whole vibe. 🦋

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int inode_fix_size (struct ubifs_info *c , struct size_entry *e );

Yup, that's the signature, copied exactly, don't come for me 🙈 — yes the spacing is a little feral, but we respect the original.

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• c — the UBIFS file-system description object. Your whole filesystem's main-character energy lives in here. 👑
• e — the inode size information used for recovery. This is the lil data bundle carrying the size scoop so recovery can do its thing. 🩹
