💅 svc_print_addr(9) — the Kernel API Manual bestie era 🎀

okay so this is svc_print_addr(9) straight out of the Kernel API Manual and honestly it's giving "small but essential" ✨ she's a little formatting helper in the SunRPC corner of the kernel and we stan a lowkey utility queen 👑

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

svc_print_addr — literally formats the rq_addr field so you can print it 💖 that's it, that's the job, and she does it flawlessly.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

char * svc_print_addr (struct svc_rqst *rqstp , char *buf , size_t len );

no cap, that's the whole signature 🫶 she returns a char * and takes three things.

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rqstp — the svc_rqst struct that's holding the address you wanna print 👑 she's the main character here, everything comes from her.
• buf — the target buffer where the formatted address goes to live 💅 your output hangs out here.
• len — the length of that target buffer 🎀 gotta tell her how much room she's got, fr fr.
