llc_sap_state_process(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, meet llc_sap_state_process(9) from the Kernel API Manual — it sends event to SAP state machine. that’s the whole vibe 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void llc_sap_state_process (struct llc_sap *sap , struct sk_buff *skb );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sap — sap to use 🫶
• skb — pointer to occurred event ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

After executing actions of the event, upper layer will be indicated if needed(on receiving an UI frame). sk can be null for the datalink_proto case. lowkey important, so keep that in mind 👑

This function always consumes a reference to the skb. no cap, every single time 💀
