💅 xdr_stream_encode_uint32_array(9) — like, the full glow-up

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this is the page for xdr_stream_e...uint32_array(9), and yes that truncated little title is exactly how it shows up in the header, iykyk 🌸

✨ NAME ✨

xdr_stream_encode_uint32_array — encode a variable length array of integers 🎀

Like, it takes your whole cute little array of ints and XDR-encodes it. No cap, that's the whole job.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ssize_t xdr_stream_encode_uint32_array (struct xdr_stream *xdr , const
__u32 *array , size_t array_size );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • xdr — pointer to xdr_stream 🫶 that's your stream, the main character of this whole operation
  • array — array of integers, the actual data you're yeeting into the encoder
  • array_size — number of elements in array, so it knows how many of them there are 💅

👑 RETURN 👑

On success, returns the length in bytes of XDR buffer consumed ⭐ and on XDR buffer overflow you get -EMSGSIZE 💀 so watch out for that one, it's giving "not enough room bestie".

lowkey obsessed with how the decode version is just sitting there at the end of that list, xdr_stream_decode_uint32_array(9), matching energy 🔥

and that's the page babes 💖 it ships from ./include/linux/sunrpc, dated October 2026, and it's literally signed xdr_stream_e...uint32_array(9) at the bottom — iconic, no notes 🧚‍♀️✨
