rqst_exp_find(9)

💅 rqst_exp_find(9) 💅

okay bestie, we’re in the Kernel API Manual and this page is all about rqst_exp_find(9) — find an svc_export in the context of a rqst or similar. slay. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct svc_export * rqst_exp_find (struct cache_req *reqp , struct net
       *net , struct auth_domain *cl , struct auth_domain *gsscl , int
       fsid_type , u32 *fsidv );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• reqp — the handle used to suspend the request if a cache-upcall is needed. if it’s NULL, missing in-cache information will result in failure. noted, bestie 🫡
• net — the network namespace where the request exists 🌐
• cl — the default auth_domain to use for looking up the export 💖
• gsscl — an alternate auth_domain defined using the deprecated gss/krb5 format. yes, deprecated — so don’t get too attached 💀
• fsid_type — the type of fsid to look for 🔍
• fsidv — the actual fsid to look up in the context of either client 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

perform a lookup for cl/fsidv in the given net for an export. if none is found and gsscl is specified, repeat the lookup. 🔁

returns an export, or an error pointer. that’s the whole vibe. no cap. 💅
