security_se...refcount_inc(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay bestie, before we even get into it — quick heads up that this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's from the kernel file ./security/security.c. it's a tiny little page but she's got a LOT of friends in SEE ALSO, so buckle up 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

security_secmark_refcount_inc — increment the secmark labeling rule count 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void security_secmark_refcount_inc (void );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • void — no arguments, bestie. she takes nothing. zero. nada. an empty plate and she's thriving 🙈

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so what this icon actually does: it tells the LSM to increment the number of secmark labeling rules loaded. that's the whole thing. that's the assignment. she counted, she bumped the number, she left. main character energy, no notes 👑

ngl it's the little sister of security_secmark_refcount_dec(9) — one goes up, one goes down, that's the whole dynamic duo 🧚

like. she's not lonely, is what we're saying 🌈

💀 lowkey important reminder: none of the above is an option, an argument, or a default. it's purely the SEE ALSO squad. don't @ me.

and that's the whole page, bestie — sourced from ./security, dated October 2026. tiny function, giant contact list. she ate and left absolutely no crumbs 🍓💜
