write_rcvrd_mst_node(9)

💅 write_rcvrd_mst_node(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🎀

okay so this one is from the Kernel API Manual and honestly it's a little guy with a big job: it writes a recovered master node. that's it. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

write_rcvrd_mst_node — literally just write recovered master node. no notes. iconic brevity 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int write_rcvrd_mst_node (struct ubifs_info *c , struct ubifs_mst_node
*mst );

like yes she takes two arguments and returns an int, we love a classic 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• c — the UBIFS file-system description object. the whole file system's little ID card, basically 🪪
• mst — the master node. the star of the show, the main character 👑

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so what does she actually do? this function returns 0 on success and a negative error code on failure. that's the entire documented behaviour, no cap 😭 like she's not gonna over-explain herself, she just does her job and tells you whether it went well or not. a queen of few words 💅

ngl the original page is short and I respect that — but the SEE ALSO list? absolutely massive. buckle up bestie 🌈
