STRUCT FUSE_SUBMOUNT_LOOKUP(9)

✨ NAME ✨

struct fuse_submount_lookup — bestie, this is the little tracker that keeps tabs on submount lookups 👀💅

okay so real talk, this is a page from the struct fuse_submount_lookup(9) Kernel API Manual (that's the manual name, folding it in right here so you're not confused 🫶), and it's literally just the anatomy of one struct. Let's get into it 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct fuse_submount_lookup {
    refcount_t count;
    u64 nodeid;
    struct fuse_forget_link *forget;
 };

there she is. three fields, no notes, iconic behavior ✨

🎀 Members 🎀

• count — the refcount, aka the vibes-check on how many people are holding onto this thing. Refcount. That's it, that's the whole field 🧚
• nodeid — the unique ID that tells the inode apart between userspace and kernel. no cap, this is the identifier that keeps both sides speaking the same language 🦋
• forget — the request that gets used for sending the FORGET message. like, the actual vehicle for the forgetting. very main character energy 💀
