✨ smk_write_relabel_self — it's giving kernel manual (section 9) energy ✨

okay so real talk, this is a kernel API manual page, section 9, for smk_write_relabel_self. Yes bestie, we're in the kernel now, put your hair up 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

smk_write_relabel_self — literally the write() handler for /smack/relabel-self. That's it, that's the whole vibe 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ssize_t smk_write_relabel_self (struct file *file , const char __user
*buf , size_t count , loff_t *ppos );

she returns an ssize_t, she takes four args, she's booked and busy ✨

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • file — the file pointer, and honestly? not actually used. she's just there for the aesthetic 🙈
  • buf — where to get the data from. the goods. the content. the main character 📥
  • count — bytes sent, aka how much you're giving her to work with 🔢
  • ppos — where to start, and it must be 0. zero. nothing else. don't try it 💀
