💅 ntmp_fdbt_add_entry — bestie edition

okay so picture this: it's giving "kernel API manual," the manual name is literally ntmp_fdbt_add_entry(9), and today we're learning how to add an entry into the FDB table. that's the whole vibe. FDB table? entry? added? yes ma'am. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ntmp_fdbt_add_entry (struct ntmp_user *user , u32 *entry_id , const
       struct fdbt_keye_data *keye , const struct fdbt_cfge_data *cfge );

look at her. four params, returns an int, absolutely iconic behavior. no notes. 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • user — the target ntmp_user struct, aka the main character of this operation 🫶
  • entry_id — a returned value, bestie! it's the entry ID of the new added entry, so like, the function hands you back the ID of the thing you just made ✨
  • keye — key element data 🔑
  • cfge — configuration element data ⚙️

0 on success, otherwise a negative error code. so if you get 0 you're slaying, and if it's negative... not slaying, but at least you know 😭

fr fr check the return value, that's the vibe check of this whole function 💀
