🌸 NAME 🌸

ubifs_read_one_lp — read LEB properties. that's it, that's the whole gig, and it does it slayfully 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ubifs_lprops *lp );

like look at that signature. three args, one int coming back at you. no cap, she's compact 🫶

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• c — the UBIFS file-system description object. your whole fs context lives here, main character energy fr
• lnum — the LEB you wanna read properties for. which LEB? that LEB. specify it bestie 👑
• lp — the spot where the read properties get stored. this is the output destination, the little home where the props move in 🏠

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so here's the tea ☕ — this helper function reads the properties of a LEB lnum and stores them in lp. super straightforward, lowkey elegant.
