xdr_commit_encode(9)

✨ xdr_commit_encode(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is xdr_commit_encode(9), and honestly it's a little function with main character energy 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

xdr_commit_encode — bestie, it makes sure all the data is actually written to xdr->buf 💅 no cap, that's the whole job.

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void xdr_commit_encode (struct xdr_stream *xdr );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• xdr — a pointer to the xdr_stream, iykyk. that's the thing you're working with 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the vibe 😌 you know how encoding can just… wander across page boundaries? like, rude. this function handles that by giving the caller a temporary location to write into, and then later it copies the data into place — like, it literally moves in later, no big deal 💅

and the copying part? that's __xdr_commit_encode doing it. it's giving backstage crew energy fr fr — invisible but iconic 👑
