nlmsvc_proc_test_msg(9)

💅✨ nlmsvc_proc_test_msg — the manual page, but make it cute ✨💅

okay so bestie, this is the nlmsvc_proc_test_msg(9) page from the Kernel API Manual. It's giving kernel-lock-checking realness, and we're gonna get through it together. No cap. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

nlmsvc_proc_test_msg — TEST_MSG: Check for conflicting lock

That's the whole vibe. It checks for a conflicting lock. Periodt. 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

__be32 nlmsvc_proc_test_msg (struct svc_rqst *rqstp );

That's the function signature, bestie. Copy it exactly, don't come for me. 😌

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rqstp — RPC transaction context. That's it. That's the argument. It's the RPC transaction context, and honestly? Iconic. ✨

---

💖 RETURN 💖

Here's the vibe check on what this function can hand back to you, bestie:

• rpc_success — RPC executed successfully. Slay. 💅
• rpc_drop_reply — Do not send an RPC reply. Like, just don't. 🙈
• rpc_garbage_args — The request arguments are malformed. Garbage in, garbage out, literally. 💀
• rpc_system_err — RPC execution failed. 😭 Not the system error.

no cap, those are the only return values. I didn't invent any. That would be rude. 🫶

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

RPC synopsis: void NLMPROC_TEST_MSG(nlm_testargs) = 6;

And here's the tea: the response to this request is delivered via the TEST_RES procedure. That's the whole description. It's short, it's sweet, it's serving main character energy. ⭐
