β¨ NAME β¨
netlbl_unlabel_list β handles a LIST message, that's her whole job and she slays it π

look at that signature. iconic. returns an int, takes two pointers, no notes π₯
π ARGUMENTS π
skbβ the NETLINK buffer, literally the whole vibe of the message being passed around π¨infoβ the Generic NETLINK info block, aka the little sidecar of context that comes along for the ride π¦
π DESCRIPTION π
so what does she actually do? she processes a user generated LIST message and responds with the current status. that's it, that's the plot β¨
and the return values? super simple, no cap:
