💖 ovpn_peer_add_p2p(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to ovpn_peer_add_p2p(9), a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally about one (1) little job: adding a peer to the related tables in a P2P instance. that's it. that's the whole gig. short page, main character energy, let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

ovpn_peer_add_p2p — add peer to related tables in a P2P instance

like, you have a peer, you have a P2P instance, and this function is the matchmaker that gets the peer into the right tables. no cap 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ovpn_peer_add_p2p (struct ovpn_priv *ovpn , struct ovpn_peer *peer
);

that's the whole signature, bestie — int coming back atcha, and two pointers going in. slay.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • ovpn — the instance to add the peer to. this is the P2P party, and you're the one doing the inviting ✨
  • peer — the peer to add. the guest of honor, the icon, the moment 🌸

🌈 RETURN 🌈

0 on success, or a negative error code otherwise. so like, if you get 0 we're celebrating 🎉 and if it's negative... well. it's giving "something went sideways," and the negative error code will tell you what. read it. respect it. 🙈
