💅 ubifs_compressors_init(9) — Kernel API Manual 🎀

okay bestie, so this one's from the Kernel API Manual, and it's genuinely such a cute little function — a whole init routine that's like "hey, wake up, we're doing compression today." no cap.

---

✨ NAME ✨

ubifs_compressors_init — initializes the UBIFS compressors 🦋 (yes, plural, all the ones that got compiled in, periodt)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ubifs_compressors_init (void );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• void — no arguments, nada, zero, she takes nothing. lowkey iconic of her tbh 🫶

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

So here's the vibe: this function initializes the compressor which were compiled in. like, whichever compressors made it into the build, she goes and sets them up. that's her whole job. main character energy 💅

And the return values? super straightforward:

• returns zero in case of success — slay, we love a clean 0 ✨
• returns a negative error code in case of failure — not slay, but at least she tells you 😭

ngl there is literally nothing else in this description. no hidden lore. no secret flags. she does one thing and she does it well. don't overthink it, bestie.
