netlbl_conn_setattr(9)

This is netlbl_conn_setattr(9) from the Kernel API Manual — yes bestie, we're in kernel API land and it's all about labeling a connected socket the correct protocol way. 💅✨

💖 NAME 💖

netlbl_conn_setattr — label a connected socket using the correct protocol.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int netlbl_conn_setattr (struct sock *sk , struct sockaddr *addr , const
       struct netlbl_lsm_secattr *secattr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sk — the socket to label. Main character socket, periodt.
• addr — the destination address.
• secattr — the security attributes.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the vibe: attach the correct label to the given connected socket, using the security attributes specified in secattr. 🫶

Big important thing, bestie: the caller is responsible for ensuring that sk is locked. Not me, not the function — you. Lock it. 💀

It returns zero on success and negative values on failure. That's the whole behavior, no cap. ✨

Caller check: you are responsible for ensuring sk is locked. 🔒
