sci_remote_..._remote_node(9)

🦋 bestie, you opened the Kernel API Manual 🦋

okay so the page is sci_remote_..._remote_node(9), and we're gonna read it like a group chat — but with all the facts intact. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

• sci_remote_node_table_allocate_triple_remote_node — that's the function name, and the NAME line in the original literally leaves that little trailing dash with no description after it. Mysterious. Iconic. 💅

🔥 SYNOPSIS 🔥

u16 sci_remote_node_table_allocate_triple_remote_node (struct
       sci_remote_node_table *remote_node_table , u32 group_table_index );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• remote_node_table — this is the remote node table from which to allocate the remote node entries. That's the source table, bestie.
• group_table_index — this is the group table index which must equal two (2) for this operation. Two. Exactly two. Do not show up with a different number. 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so this method will allocate three consecutive remote node context entries. Three. In a row. Triple trouble, but make it kernel bookkeeping. 💅

If there are no remaining triple entries, the function will return a failure. No triples left? No dice. 😭

The remote node index that represents three consecutive remote node entries or an invalid remote node context if none can be found — that's the line, bestie, and we're keeping it exactly. periodt ✨
