πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… nilfs_sufil...usage_offset(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual, girlies ✨

okay so picture this: you're deep in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and the page you've pulled up is literally called nilfs_sufil...usage_offset(9) (yeah the name's a little truncated, we don't gatekeep, we love her anyway 🫢). This is the one that tells you where a segment usage entry lives inside its folio. main character energy, honestly.


✨ NAME ✨

nilfs_sufile_segment_usage_offset β€” bestie, this one calculates the byte offset of a segment usage entry inside the folio that contains it. that's the whole vibe. πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

size_t nilfs_sufile_segment_usage_offset (const struct inode *sufile ,
__u64 segnum , struct buffer_head *bh );

like, yes, the line wraps weird in the synopsis, that's just how she is, don't come for her 😭


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • sufile β€” the segment usage file inode. the main inode of the whole operation, no cap πŸ‘‘
  • segnum β€” the number of the segment usage. which entry are we talking about, queen? πŸ”₯
  • bh β€” the buffer head of the block containing the segment usage indexed by segnum. it's literally the block holder for that entry, okurrr πŸ’…

⭐ RETURN ⭐

She gives you back the byte offset in the folio of the segment usage entry. that's it, that's the gift 🎁✨
