📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 ubifs_create_dflt_lpt 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the ubifs_create_dflt_lpt(9) page — straight out of the Kernel API Manual, no cap. this one's all about building the default LPT and honestly? it's giving foundational ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int ubifs_create_dflt_lpt (struct ubifs_info *c , int *main_lebs , int
       lpt_first , int *lpt_lebs , int *big_lpt , u8 *hash );

like, look at her. six parameters. main character energy fr fr 🎀

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • c — the UBIFS file-system description object 💅 this is the whole vibe, everything hangs off of it
  • main_lebs — the number of main area LEBs gets passed in here and returned here. yes bestie, it's a two-way street, she goes both directions 😭
  • lpt_first — the LEB number of the first LPT LEB. that's it, that's the whole thing, iconic
  • lpt_lebs — the number of LEBs for the LPT, passed and returned here. same deal as main_lebs, lowkey in-and-out 🫶
  • big_lpt — whether to use the big LPT model, passed and returned here. big LPT model = big energy, obviously 👑
  • hash — the hash of the LPT gets returned here. output parameter, she's just reporting back 🍓

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

okay so literally the whole thing: this function returns 0 on success and a negative error code on failure. that's the tea. that's the entire description. sometimes the manpage is short and that's fine, we respect the brevity 💀✨

bestie please actually check that return value, a negative error code is not a vibe and you should handle it 🙈
