ssh_ptl_tx_wakeup_transfer(9)

💅 ssh_ptl_tx_wakeup_transfer 💅

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual (ssh_ptl_tx_wakeup_transfer(9), bestie — that's the whole header, we're not copying it, we're living it) and it's honestly such a tiny little function with such a big job. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

ssh_ptl_tx_wakeup_transfer — the girl whose entire personality is waking up the packet transmitter thread for transfer 🌸 like yes, that's the gig, and she ate.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void ssh_ptl_tx_wakeup_transfer (struct ssh_ptl *ptl );

no return value, no drama, just vibes and one pointer 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ptl — the packet transport layer. that's it. that's the whole argument. she's the main character here 👑

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so what does it do? it wakes up the packet transmitter thread 🫶 and it's literally just tapping her on the shoulder like "bestie. the underlying transport has more space for data to be transmitted. go off."

that's the notifying part — the function tells the transmitter thread that there's room to send more stuff, and then the thread can do its thing. lowkey iconic.

⚠️ but listen — if the packet transport layer has been shut down, then calls to this function will be ignored. like, fully ignored, no error, no nothing, just 🧚 into the void. so don't be out here expecting a wakeup after shutdown, because you will not be getting one, and that's on periodt.
