💅 ubifs_remount_rw(9)

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes we're reading kernel docs for fun now, that's the energy, that's the arc 🦋

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ubifs_remount_rw — re-mount in read-write mode, periodt 💫

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int ubifs_remount_rw (struct ubifs_info *c );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• c — the UBIFS file-system description object, aka the whole vibe of the filesystem handed to you in a struct 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea ☕ — UBIFS is lowkey smart and avoids allocating a bunch of unnecessary resources when it's mounted in read-only mode. like, why book the venue if nobody's coming, right? 🙈

This function is the glow-up moment: it allocates all the needed resources and re-mounts UBIFS in read-write mode 🔥 so the filesystem can finally do stuff instead of just sitting there looking pretty.

no cap, that's the whole function. iconic, honestly 👑
