vdo_set_completion_result(9)

💅 vdo_set_completion_result(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual one, bestie

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you've got a completion, and you just need to tell it how things went. that's the whole vibe of this page. it's a function page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's short, it's sweet, it ate. let's go ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

vdo_set_completion_result — set the result of a completion. that's it. that's the job. no cap 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void vdo_set_completion_result (struct vdo_completion *completion , int result );

literally just hand it a completion and a result and it does the thing 🫶

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• completion — the completion you want to update. your main character completion, if you will.
• result — the result you're setting on it. yes, that's really the name. iconic, no notes.

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the one (1) thing you actually need to know, and it's kind of important:

older errors will not be masked. 🌈

that's the whole description. it's giving minimal but it matters. you can't just paper over an old error by slapping a fresh result on there — that error is staying visible, periodt. 💀

• kernel file ./drivers/md/dm-vdo/completion.c — vdo completions.(9) 👑
