ldm_create_data_partitions(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for ldm_create_data_partitions 💅 this one is literally about creating data partitions for this device, and it’s giving “quiet little kernel helper with main character energy” ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

ldm_create_data_partitions — create data partitions for this device 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool ldm_create_data_partitions (struct parsed_partitions *pp , const
       struct ldmdb *ldb );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • struct parsed_partitions *pp — the list of the partitions parsed so far, bestie 🫶
  • const struct ldmdb *ldb — the cache of the database structures, periodt 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so the database contains ALL the partitions for ALL disk groups — it is lowkey doing the MOST — so we need to filter out this specific disk 🔥 using the disk’s object id, we can find all the partitions in the database that belong to this disk, no cap 💖

then we add each partition in our database to the parsed_partitions structure ✨ every partition gets its moment, fr fr.

N.B. this function creates the partitions in the order it finds partition objects in the linked list — order matters, bestie, periodt 🫶

💫 RETURN 💫

this section is literally blank in the original page — no return description, no extra notes, just vibes and an empty section 😭 no cap.
