okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for parse_slab_size(9), bestie. It's lowkey a tiny parser page, but it's doing its thing and we respect it. 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

parse_slab_size — parses a string option into a slab size value, periodt. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

here's the signature, exactly as it lives, no cap:

int parse_slab_size (const char *slab_str , block_count_t *slab_size_ptr
       );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• slab_str — the string value that represents the slab size, bestie.
• slab_size_ptr — a pointer to return the slab size in. 🫶

⭐ RETURN ⭐

this one returns VDO_SUCCESS or an error. that's the whole vibe check. 😌
