tipc_aead_tfm_next(9)

💅 tipc_aead_tfm_next — the kernel API manual, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to the tipc_aead_tfm_next(9) page ✨ this is the Kernel API Manual entry, and it's honestly short and sweet — a little one-job function living its best life in the TIPC crypto code 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

tipc_aead_tfm_next — moves the TFM entry along to the next one in the list, and hands it right back to you 🫶

Like, that's the whole personality. It's a "next please" function. Iconic behaviour, no notes 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct crypto_aead * tipc_aead_tfm_next (struct tipc_aead *aead );

So it takes your aead and gives you back a struct crypto_aead * — the next TFM in the lineup, periodt 🔥

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• aead — the AEAD key pointer 💖 that's your input, bestie, the thing you're passing in.
