smk_get_tree(9)

πŸ’… smk_get_tree(9) β€” a Kernel API Manual moment πŸŽ€

Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for smk_get_tree β€” yes that's the manual name, it's serving documentation energy and we're here for it. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

smk_get_tree β€” literally just gets the smackfs superblock, no cap πŸ¦‹


⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

int smk_get_tree (struct fs_context *fc );

That return type is int, that function name is smk_get_tree, and it takes exactly one arg. Copy it character for character, iykyk. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • fc β€” the mount context, and it's packing any options you brought along with you. So basically whatever you'd want the mount to know? It's in there. 🫢

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So here's the whole vibe: it just passes everything along. That's it. That's the function. Everything goes straight through to the lower level code, no side quests, no drama, no extra processing. 😭

And it returns what the lower level code does β€” whatever that lower layer hands back is what you get. No reinterpretation, no glow-up, no editorialising. What the lower level says, goes. πŸ‘‘

Fr fr though β€” this one is a pure pass-through, so if you're looking for the actual logic, it lives further down. Don't come for this function, she's just the messenger. πŸ’€
