💅 ubi_do_get_volume_info(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

Okay so picture this: you're in the kernel, you're poking at UBI (that's Unsorted Block Images, the flash thingy ✨), and you just wanna know stuff about a volume. That's literally it. That's the whole function. ubi_do_get_volume_info = get information about UBI volume. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

ubi_do_get_volume_info — get information about UBI volume. No cap, that's the whole job description. 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ubi_do_get_volume_info (struct ubi_device *ubi , struct ubi_volume
*vol , struct ubi_volume_info *vi );

Look at her. Returns void, so she doesn't even give you a status code back — she just does the thing and dips. 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ubi — the UBI device description object. Like, the big picture device vibe. Your main character device. 👑
• vol — the volume description object. The specific volume you're being nosy about. 🔍
• vi — the information is stored here. This is the output spot, bestie — she fills this bad boy in for you. 🍓
