okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for insert_in_hop_list(9) — it’s giving “tiny helper with one very specific job,” and honestly? iconic. 💅✨

✨ NAME ✨

insert_in_hop_list — adds a bucket into the hop list for the neighborhood. that’s the whole vibe. 🪣💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void insert_in_hop_list (struct bucket *neighborhood , struct bucket *new_bucket );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• neighborhood — the first bucket in the neighborhood. yes, the literal first one. 👑
• new_bucket — the bucket to add to the hop list. this is the newbie getting slotted in. 🎀

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so the bucket gets inserted into the list, and the whole point is that the hop list remains sorted by hop offset. no cap, that’s the behavior — the list stays ordered by hop offset, periodt. 🫶✨
