💖 llc_ui_accept(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to another page from the Kernel API Manual — this one's called llc_ui_accept, and it's genuinely the friendliest little function: it's literally just "hey, someone's calling, wanna pick up?" energy. No cap.

✨ NAME ✨

llc_ui_accept — accept a new incoming connection. that's it, that's the whole vibe 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int llc_ui_accept (struct socket *sock , struct socket *newsock , struct proto_accept_arg *arg );

three args, one int return, main character signature honestly 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • sock — the socket where the connections actually arrive. like, this is the one picking up the phone 📞
  • newsock — the socket we move the incoming connection into. new socket, new home, slay 🏡
  • arg — user specified arguments. just passing along whatever the user asked for 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Accept a new incoming connection. Returns 0 upon success, negative otherwise.

that's genuinely it, bestie — no secret lore, no hidden flags, no surprises. 0 means you ate and left no crumbs; anything negative means it didn't go through 😭

lowkey love that this one's short — some manpages are like 400 lines and this one's just "accepts a connection, returns 0 or negative, bye" 💀
