πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– struct luo_session_header(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, grab your emotional support tea πŸ“ β€” this is the manual page for struct luo_session_header, and it's literally the main character header struct for managing LUO sessions. it lives in the Kernel API Manual and we're gonna get through it together, no cap ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct luo_session_header β€” the header struct for managing LUO sessions. that's it, that's the vibe πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole struct, copied exactly, don't touch it:

struct luo_session_header {
    long count;
    struct list_head list;
    struct rw_semaphore rwsem;
    struct kho_block_set block_set;
    u64 *sessions_pa;
    bool active;
 };

like, look at her. six fields. iconic. πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

okay bestie, field-by-field, let's go 🫢

  • count β€” the number of sessions currently tracked in the list. she's keeping score fr fr πŸ”₯
  • list β€” the head of the linked list of struct luo_session instances. this is where all the session besties hang out 🌈
  • rwsem β€” a read-write semaphore providing synchronized access to the session list and other fields in this structure. she's the bouncer at the club, keeping everything orderly πŸ’…
  • block_set β€” the set of serialization blocks. that's the whole description, don't ask me for more, i only report what's on the page 🧚
  • sessions_pa β€” points to the location of sessions_pa within struct luo_ser. yes, sessions_pa points at sessions_pa. she's a little self-referential queen, we love her πŸ™ˆ
  • active β€” set to true when first initialized. if the previous kernel did not send session data, active stays false for incoming. lowkey the most important vibe check here πŸ‘€

πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

  • Kernel file ./kernel/liveupdate/luo_session.c
  • LUO Sessions(9)
  • struct luo_session_global(9)

go read those too bestie, i believe in you 🌟


okay actual note: this page is short but every single field matters, so don't skip the active bit β€” that false-for-incoming case is real πŸ’€

sign-off time πŸŽ€ this lil beauty comes from ./kernel/liveupdate, dated October 2026, and it's the struct luo_session_header(9) page of the Kernel API Manual. slay, go forth and manage those sessions πŸ’œπŸ¦‹
