tomoyo_print_ipv6(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– tomoyo_print_ipv6(9) β€” the kernel API manual, bestie edition πŸ’–

okay so picture this: it's a kernel API manual page, the function is tomoyo_print_ipv6, and it lives in section (9) of the manual. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

tomoyo_print_ipv6 β€” Print an IPv6 address.

like, literally just prints an IPv6 address. that's the job. no cap. πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void tomoyo_print_ipv6 (char *buffer , const unsigned int buffer_len ,
const struct in6_addr *min_ip , const struct in6_addr *max_ip );

that's the whole signature, copy-pasted verbatim because we respect the source πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

okay so here's who's coming to the function party:

  • buffer β€” the buffer you're writing to. that's the canvas, bestie. 🎨
  • buffer_len β€” the size of buffer. know your limits, icon. πŸ“
  • min_ip β€” a pointer to struct in6_addr. that's the min one, keep that in mind.
  • max_ip β€” a pointer to struct in6_addr. and that's the max one. they're a matched set, we love to see it. 🫢

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

Returns nothing.

that's it. that's the whole description. it prints the IPv6 address and then it returns nothing, because it is a void function and it is at peace with that. no return value, no drama, just vibes. πŸ§˜β€β™€οΈβœ¨

lowkey iconic that the entire DESCRIPTION section is four words. she said "my behavior is self-evident" and honestly? respect.

okay this is the long part and i need you to stay with me, bestie, because the TOMOYO network crew is LARGE and they all showed up 🌈

first up, the kernel file that this whole thing lives in:

./security/tomoyo/network.c

and now the whole friend group, in order:

that's twenty-three (9) pages plus the file itself. the way this function is SO connected. main character energy fr fr πŸ’€πŸ”₯


and that's the page!! hope you understood it, bestie, because i definitely explained it πŸ’œ
