💅 nlm4_svc_encode_nlm4_shareres — Kernel API Manual, section 9 🎀

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the kernel-functions girlies) and today's main character is nlm4_svc_encode_nlm4_shareres ✨ she's not the flashiest name in the file but she does one thing and she does it correctly, and honestly? we respect that 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

nlm4_svc_encode_nlm4_shareres — literally encodes a nlm4_shareres result. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool nlm4_svc_encode_nlm4_shareres (struct svc_rqst *rqstp , struct
xdr_stream *xdr );

like yes, that's the exact signature, copy it character for character, don't be weird about it 😌

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • rqstp — the RPC transaction context 💖 this is the whole "who's asking, what's the vibe" bundle for the request you're handling.
  • xdr — the target XDR data stream 🌈 this is the stream she's writing the encoded result into, so like, the destination, the canvas, the little data river.

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the whole thing is about return values, and there are exactly two moods:

  • true — the procedure results encoded successfully 👑 slay, we ate, the bytes landed.
  • false — encode failed 💀 not slay, something went sideways along the way.

that's genuinely the entire described contract, so no, I'm not gonna invent extra behaviour for you — the page doesn't say more and I'm not out here making things up 🙈

🧚 SEE ALSO 🧚

the kernel source lives at ./fs/lockd/nlm4xdr_gen.c (and the directory in the footer is ./fs/lockd) — go read the source, iykyk 💜

and here's the whole friend group, all of them, in order, besties fr fr:

ok tiny heads up 🎀 that list is exactly what the page gives you — every single one of those (9) references, not one dropped, not one merged. click through them, they're the sisters, they're the squad, they're giving lockd family reunion 🌸

sign-off time 💅✨ this little icon says bye from ./fs/lockd, dated October 2026, and the manual is the Kernel API Manual — go forth, encode responsibly, and remember: true means slay, false means 💀. mwah 🫶🎀
