✨ nilfs_btree_get_next_key(9) ✨

okay so this little icon is straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally here to get the next valid key from a btree path array. bestie behavior, honestly 🫢


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

nilfs_btree_get_next_key β€” get next valid key from btree path array


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

no cap, here's the whole signature:

int nilfs_btree_get_next_key (const struct nilfs_bmap *btree , const
       struct nilfs_btree_path *path , int minlevel , __u64 *nextkey );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

okay bestie, here's what you're feeding it:

  • btree β€” bmap struct of btree
  • path β€” array of nilfs_btree_path struct
  • minlevel β€” start level
  • nextkey β€” place to store the next valid key

πŸ¦‹ RETURN πŸ¦‹

it returns 0 if the next key was found, and -ENOENT if not found. that's the whole vibe check πŸ’…
