tipc_sk_dump(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 tipc_sk_dump(9) — like, the whole TIPC socket dump situation 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to the glow-up of the Kernel API Manual page for tipc_sk_dump</p> — yes, the <pink>9</pink> means we're in kernel-API territory, so grab your emotional support iced coffee 🍓 and let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

tipc_sk_dump — dump TIPC socket. That's the whole vibe. We're dumping a TIPC socket, no cap. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int tipc_sk_dump (struct sock *sk , u16 dqueues , char *buf );

Look at her. Iconic signature. Returns an int, takes a struct sock *sk, a u16 dqueues, and a char *buf. Periodt. ✨

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • sk — the tipc sk that's getting dumped, bestie. She's the main character of this whole operation. 👑
  • dqueues — a bitmask that decides if any socket queue should be dumped? (yes, the original manpage has a question mark and honestly? relatable energy 🙈). Here's the tea on the bits:
    • TIPC_DUMP_NONE: don't dump socket queues. We're keeping it cute and queue-free. ✨
    • TIPC_DUMP_SK_SNDQ: dump socket send queue. 📤
    • TIPC_DUMP_SK_RCVQ: dump socket rcv queue. 📥
    • TIPC_DUMP_SK_BKLGQ: dump socket backlog queue. 🗂️
    • TIPC_DUMP_ALL: dump all the socket queues above. She ate and left no crumbs. 🔥
  • buf — returned buffer of dump data in format. That's where the dump output lives, literally. 🎀

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

So many friends, so much lore. The Kernel file ./net/tipc/socket.c and struct tipc_sock(9) are the home base, and then the whole group chat shows up:

fr fr, that's everyone. Don't @ me, I listed all of them. 💀

ta-ta for now, bestie 🫶 — this one came from ./net/tipc, dated October 2026, and yes she's filed under tipc_sk_dump(9) because obviously. 🎀✨🦋
