✨ p9_client_rpc(9) ✨

okay so this is from the Kernel API Manual, bestie, and we're talking about p9_client_rpc(9). Yes, we're doing kernel request/response vibes today. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

p9_client_rpc — issue a request and wait for a response

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

struct p9_req_t * p9_client_rpc (struct p9_client *c , int8_t type ,
       const char *fmt , ... );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• c — client session. Like, the whole session context goes here, bestie. 🫶
• type — type of request. It's an int8_t, slay. ✨
• fmt — protocol format string (see protocol.c). This is the format-string moment, iykyk. 🎀
• ... — variable arguments. Extra args go here, no cap. 💅

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Okay so this function returns a request structure — and the client must free it using p9_req_put. That's the tea. Don't forget the cleanup, because the page literally says the client must free it with p9_req_put. periodt. 💖
