netlbl_cfg_unlbl_static_del(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 netlbl_cfg_unlbl_static_del — the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

Okay so bestie, this is the man page for netlbl_cfg_unlbl_static_del, straight outta the Kernel API Manual. It's giving "niche kernel networking function that deletes a thing," and honestly? We're obsessed. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

netlbl_cfg_unlbl_static_del — Removes an existing static label. Periodt, that's the whole gig 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the whole vibe in code form, bestie:

int netlbl_cfg_unlbl_static_del (struct net *net , const char *dev_name
, const void *addr , const void *mask , u16 family , struct netlbl_audit
*audit_info );

Look at all those parameters. Main character energy fr fr 🔥

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

Every arg gets its moment, no cap:

  • net — the network namespace you're working inside. Your little networking bubble 🌐
  • dev_name — the interface name. Like, which network interface are we talking about here 👀
  • addr — the IP address, and it's in network byte order (that's a struct in[6]_addr, iykyk) 📬
  • mask — the address mask, also in network byte order (again, struct in[6]_addr — consistency is iconic) 🎭
  • family — the address family. The u16 that tells everyone what kind of address we're dealing with 💫
  • audit_info — NetLabel audit information. For the receipts, literally 📝

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the tea ☕ — this function removes an existing NetLabel static label that gets used when protocol-provided labels are not present on incoming traffic. It's the cleanup crew, the delete button, the "bye bestie" of static labels 💀

Real talk though: if dev_name is NULL, then the default interface will be used. Easy. Lowkey convenient, ngl 🧚

And the return situation? Returns 0 (zero) on success — slay 🎉 — and negative values on failure. So if you get a negative number back, something went wrong and you should probably look into that 🙈

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

Okay this list is LONG, so buckle up. We got the whole NetLabel extended family here, and they all showed up to the group chat:

That's the whole squad, and they all ate 💅✨

⚠️ Quick vibe check bestie: this is a kernel API function. Don't go calling it from userspace and expecting a cute little error — it's for kernel code only. K? Thanks 🫶

And that's the page! Cute little sign-off: this was pulled from ./net/netlabel, dated October 2026, and it's the netlbl_cfg_unlbl_static_del(9) manual page. You're welcome, bestie, go forth and delete those static labels 💖🌸✨
