💅 rxrpc_kernel_reject_challenge 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual corner of the group chat ✨ this one's literally called rxrpc_kernel_reject_challenge and it's giving "say it to my face" energy, no cap 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

rxrpc_kernel_reject_challenge — the glow-up that lets a kernel service reject a challenge 💀✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int rxrpc_kernel_reject_challenge (struct sk_buff *challenge , u32
abort_code , int error , enum rxrpc_abort_reason why );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• challenge — the challenge that's getting rejected, bye bestie 👋 it's the struct sk_buff in question.
• abort_code — the abort code you stick into the ABORT packet 🔥 literally what goes in there.
• error — your local error value, iykyk.
• why — an indication as to why. that's it, that's the vibe check 🙈

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so the whole point: this lets a kernel service reject a challenge by aborting the connection — but only if it's still in an abortable state, bestie. if it's not abortable anymore, that's just how it is 😭

the error gets returned, which is lowkey iconic because it means you can drop this function straight into a return statement and it just works. main character energy fr fr 👑

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

the error parameter. that's it. hand it back, periodt 💅
