ynl_has_ntf(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, welcome to ynl_has_ntf(9) from the Kernel API Manual 🫶 this one is literally a tiny check: it tells you if the socket has parsed notifications. that's the whole vibe. parsed is the key word here, iykyk 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool ynl_has_ntf (struct ynl_sock *ys );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ys — the active YNL socket. that's it, that's the argument 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea ☕: this does not take into account notifications sitting in the netlink socket. nope, not those. it only looks at the notifications which have already been read and parsed — e.g. during a ynl_ntf_check call. so if you're expecting it to count the ones still chilling in the netlink socket, bestie, it's giving “not my job” 💀

lowkey important vibe check: parsed notifications only. already read + parsed. not the ones still sitting in the netlink socket. periodt.
