STRUCT LUO_SESSION(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for struct luo_session(9) — this is the one about the Live Update session struct. It represents an active or incoming Live Update session. that's the whole vibe: active or incoming, Live Update session, periodt 💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

the exact shape of this icon is:

       struct luo_session {
           char name[LIVEUPDATE_SESSION_NAME_LENGTH];
           struct list_head list;
           bool retrieved;
           struct luo_file_set file_set;
           struct mutex mutex;
        };

🌸 Members 🌸

• name — a unique name for this session, used for identification and retrieval. literally its whole job, and it ate 💖
• list — a list_head member that links this session into a global list — either outgoing (to be preserved) or incoming (restored from previous kernel) sessions. it's giving linked-list main character energy ✨
• retrieved — a boolean flag that says whether this session has been retrieved by a consumer in the new kernel. yes bestie, it's a vibe check in boolean form 🦋
• file_set — a set of files that belong to this session. the whole little file family 🎀
• mutex — protects fields in the luo_session. lowkey the bodyguard of this struct 💪
