xdr_finish_decode(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

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

Okay so like, welcome to the <pink>Kernel API Manual</pink> ✨ and today's main character is xdr_finish_decode — yes it's a <purple>(9)</purple> page, that's the kernel section, iykyk 🧚

🌸 NAME 🌸

xdr_finish_decode — the little cleanup crew that tidies up your xdr_stream after you've decoded your data 🫧✨

Literal vibe: you decoded stuff, now you're done, and somebody's gotta put the furniture back. That somebody is this function. <mint>obsessed.</mint>

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void xdr_finish_decode (struct xdr_stream *xdr );

That's it. That's the whole signature. <cyan>void</cyan> return, one arg, no drama 💅

🍓 ARGUMENTS 🍓

  • xdr — pointer to <lavender>xdr_stream</lavender> struct 🔥 Yes bestie, just a pointer. That's the whole ask. Hand me the stream and I'll handle the rest ✨

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

Okay so this is the part where the page absolutely <hotpink>ATE</hotpink> — the kernel file <yellow>./net/sunrpc/xdr.c</yellow> is like the group chat headquarters and literally every sibling function is tagged in here 😭💀 Behold, the full friend list, no cap, every single one:

Note bestie: those leading-underscore ones (_shift_data_left_pages, _shift_data_right_pages, _copy_to_pages, _copy_from_pages) and the double-underscore __xdr_commit_encode are written <red>exactly</red> like that — copy them character for character, don't "clean them up" 🙈

<rainbow>and that's the whole page, periodt 💖</rainbow>

Signed off with love from <purple>./net/sunrpc</purple> 🌈, dated <peach>October 2026</peach> 🎀 — xoxo, your resident kernel-fluent bestie, slay 💅✨🦋
