lpt_init_rd(9)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay bestie, this is lpt_init_rd(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and its whole personality is literally this: initialize the LPT for reading. 💅 no cap, that’s the name and that’s the vibe.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lpt_init_rd (struct ubifs_info *c );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• c — the UBIFS file-system description object. that’s the whole argument, bestie 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here’s the tea: this function returns 0 on success and a negative error code on failure. that’s the contract, and it’s giving very “short but important” energy 😭 success means 0, failure means a negative error code, periodt.
