π smb2_query_info β kernel API manual, but make it make sense
okay so bestie, welcome to the smb2_query_info(9) page β¨ this is a kernel API manual entry, and it's literally the handler for the smb2 query info command. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
smb2_query_info β the handler for the smb2 query info command π

like, that's it. one function, one argument, returns an int. iconic minimalism π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
workβ the smb work that's holding the query info request buffer. it's giving "the whole package deal" β the request comes wrapped up in this bad boy π¦
β RETURN β
0 on success β and otherwise, an error. no cap, that's the entire contract π

like, that's the entire roster. read them, love them, link them π₯
and that's the page bestie!! this one lives over in ./fs/smb/server and it's dated October 2026 β so yeah, mark your calendars, this manpage is a whole time traveler π°οΈβ¨ mwah, go read some kernel code π
