vdo_schedule_default_action(9)

💅 vdo_schedule_default_action(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes THE kernel API manual, we're literally in the big leagues now, and this little page is your VIP pass to one very specific vibe: trying to get the default action onto the schedule. no cap, that's the whole gig. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

vdo_schedule_default_action — attempt to schedule the default action. that's it, that's the mission, and honestly? iconic. lowkey a one-line queen. 👑

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

bool vdo_schedule_default_action (struct action_manager *manager );

copy it exactly like that, bestie — spacing and all — because the compiler does NOT do vibes-based parsing. 💀

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• manager — the action manager. yes, the whole thing. it's the main character of this function and you WILL hand it over. 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the tea, fr fr: this function attempts to schedule the default action. that's the move. that's the errand. ✨

but — and this is the important bit, don't skip it — if the manager is not operating normally, the action will not be scheduled. like, at all. none. zero. the schedule stays empty and your default action is left on read. 😭 so before you come at this function, do a little vibe check on your manager first. if it's not behaving, this call is just gonna say "nope" and move on. periodt. 💅

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

• true — an action was scheduled! slay! the default action made it onto the list. you did it, bestie 🎉
• everything else — no action got scheduled. see the DESCRIPTION above for the very real reason why. 🙈

💀 reminder bestie: the "not operating normally" clause is real. this isn't a maybe, it's a hard no-action. don't come for me when your schedule is empty because your manager was acting up. 🙈

okay that's the page!! brought to you live from ./drivers/md/dm-vdo, dated October 2026, and no I will not be taking questions about why a kernel manual has this much energy — it's giving documentation glow-up and I'm obsessed. mwah, study hard, run your checks, and may all your managers operate normally 🧚‍♀️💖✨
