nfs4_proc_get_rootfh(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay so bestie, welcome to nfs4_proc_get_rootfh(9) from the Kernel API Manual — the function whose whole vibe is literally “get file handle for server's pseudoroot.” 💅✨ No cap, the name is giving exactly what it needs to give.

✨ NAME ✨

nfs4_proc_get_rootfh — get file handle for server's pseudoroot. 🎀

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Here's the exact signature, copy-paste energy only:

int nfs4_proc_get_rootfh (struct nfs_server *server , struct nfs_fh
*fhandle , struct nfs_fattr *fattr , bool auth_probe );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

  • server — initialized nfs_server handle. Like, it's already set up and ready to go. 🫶
  • fhandle — we fill in the pseudo-fs root file handle. That's the assignment, and it's lowkey iconic. 🌸
  • fattr — we fill in a bare bones struct fattr. Bare bones but still booked and busy. 💖
  • auth_probe — probe the auth flavours. Yep, that's the whole note. ✨

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

The return-value moment is the whole description: it returns zero on success, or a negative errno. That's it, and honestly? minimalist queen behavior. 💅
