nlm_svc_decode_nlm_res(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… nlm_svc_decode_nlm_res(9) β€” like, from the Kernel API Manual bestie, we're decoding a nlm_res argument ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

nlm_svc_decode_nlm_res β€” the little function whose whole job is decoding an nlm_res argument, and honestly? iconic of it πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

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

Like, that's the whole vibe check: it hands you back a bool. That's it. That's the girl πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • rqstp β€” the RPC transaction context, aka the main character of the whole call, no cap πŸ‘‘
  • xdr β€” the source XDR data stream, aka where the bytes are literally coming from 🫢

πŸ’€ DESCRIPTION πŸ’€

Okay so here's the tea β€” the return values, and there are exactly two of them:

  • true β€” the procedure arguments got decoded successfully, slay ✨
  • false β€” the decode failed, and we're sad about it 😭

That's the entire description. She's short, she's sweet, she decodes and she leaves. Periodt πŸ’…

🧚 Quick reminder bestie: these are the encode/decode siblings in the same file, so if you're lost in ./fs/lockd, you're literally in the right place 🌈

And that's a wrap, babes πŸ’œ this one's from ./fs/lockd, dated October 2026, living its best life under the Kernel API Manual banner β€” go forth and decode responsibly, mwah πŸ“πŸ’–
