✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int tomoyo_path_truncate (const struct path *path );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • path — a pointer to struct path. yep, that's it, that's the whole vibe check. it's a pointer, it points at a struct path, we move on 💖

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what does she actually do? she returns 0 on success, and a negative value otherwise. that's the entire description, no cap 😭 short king behavior fr fr.

lowkey a mood that the whole description is two clauses. she said "my behavior is my business" and honestly? slay.
