nlm_svc_encode_nlm_shareres(9)

💅 nlm_svc_encode_nlm_shareres(9) — like, the whole manual page, bestie

Okay so real talk: this is nlm_svc_encode_nlm_shareres(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the glow-up step for an nlm_shareres result. It takes your result and ✨encodes✨ it into an XDR stream so it can go out on the wire. Short page, iconic function, let's get into it 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

nlm_svc_encode_nlm_shareres — no cap, this one encodes an nlm_shareres result 💖

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

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

That's the whole signature, bestie — a bool going in, two args, done 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• rqstp — the RPC transaction context. Think of it as the ~vibe~ of the current call 🌀
• xdr — the target XDR data stream. This is the canvas, and we're painting the result onto it 🖌️

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

So what does it actually do? It returns a bool, and the return values are exactly this, fr fr:

• true — the procedure results encoded successfully, slay ✅
• false — encode failed 😭

That's it. That's the function. Lowkey elegant, highkey essential 💅

Heads up: those two values are the entire documented return contract here — don't go reading extra meaning into them 🫶
