okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, the actual kernel manual, we're being fancy today π) and the header up top is out here abbreviating for its life β it literally says llc_conn_ac..._f_set_ackpf(9) β but the real, full government name is llc_conn_ac_send_rr_rsp_f_set_ackpf. bestie, it's a mouthful, but it ate. π
β¨ NAME β¨
llc_conn_ac_send_rr_rsp_f_set_ackpf β ack all rx PDUs not yet acked π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int llc_conn_ac_send_rr_rsp_f_set_ackpf (struct sock *sk , struct
sk_buff *skb );
like, that's the whole vibe. two arguments, one int coming back at you. π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
skβ the current connection structure. your main character struct ngl πskbβ the current event. yes it's calledskb, yes it's astruct sk_buff *, no we're not gonna make it weird πΈ
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so picture this: this action sends an RR response with the f-bit set to the ack_pf flag β as an acknowledge to all received PDUs that have not been acknowledged yet, if there are any, periodt. π₯
the ack_pf flag is out here indicating whether a PDU has been received with the p-bit set to one. iykyk. π
and the return? it's giving simple: returns 0 for success, 1 otherwise. that's it. that's the whole personality. π
π SEE ALSO π
bestie go touch the kernel file ./net/llc/llc_c_ac.c β that's where it lives π§ and here's the whole friend group, no cap:

okay that's the page bestie, mwah π β this lil slice of heaven comes to you from ./net/llc, dated October 2026, and the footer is still out here calling it llc_conn_ac..._f_set_ackpf(9) because consistency is iconic. bye bye, go ack those PDUs ππ¦β¨
