tipc_sk_set_orig_addr(9)

💅 tipc_sk_set_orig_addr — like, the whole vibe

okay bestie, so this one lives in the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel-space girlies only ✨), and it's a short one — but it's important, okay? It's giving "small function, big responsibility." Let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

tipc_sk_set_orig_addr — literally just capturing the sender's address for a received message, no big deal 💌

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void tipc_sk_set_orig_addr (struct msghdr *m , struct sk_buff *skb );

notice how it returns void?? yeah. it does the thing and doesn't need to brag about it. main character energy, honestly 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• m — the descriptor for the message info. this is where the address info ends up, so like… it's the notebook bestie 📓
• skb — the received message. the actual packet that showed up to the party 🎉

---

⚠️ NOTE ⚠️

bestie read this twice: the address is not captured if it wasn't requested by the receiver. so if nobody asked, nobody gets it — no cap. it's not being shady, it's just respecting boundaries 🙈

that's the whole page, bestie — short and slay 💅

sign-off time 🎀 this little baddie ships out of ./net/tipc, dated October 2026, under the Kernel API Manual banner. go forth and capture those addresses (only when requested, obviously) ✨💖🌸
