nilfs_write_inode_common(9)

okay so bestie, this is nilfs_write_inode_common(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and the way that this page is lowkey iconic 💅✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

nilfs_write_inode_common — export common inode information to on-disk inode 🫶

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

here's the signature, bestie — copy it exactly, no cap:

void nilfs_write_inode_common (struct inode *inode , struct nilfs_inode *raw_inode );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• inode — inode object, periodt 🫶
• raw_inode — on-disk inode, literally 💾

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the tea: this function writes standard information from the on-memory inode inode to raw_inode on ifile, cpfile or a super root block 💾✨

important caveat, don't skip this: since inode bmap data is not exported, nilfs_bmap_write must be called separately during log writing. like, separately separately 🙈 — no sneaking it in here.
