Three Five Seven

/* * Check that all of the backup GDT blocks are held in the primary GDT block. * It is assumed that they are stored in group order. Returns the number of * groups in current filesystem that have BACKUPS, or -ve error code. */ static int verify_reserved_gdb(struct super_block *sb, ext4_group_t end, struct buffer_head *primary) { const ext4_fsblk_t blk = primary->b_blocknr; unsigned three = 1; unsigned five = 5; unsigned seven = 7; unsigned grp; __le32 *p = (__le32 *)primary->b_data; int gdbbackups = 0;

A screenshot of Linux kernel source code shows a function checking backup GDT blocks, with variables named three, five, and seven assigned the values 1, 5, and 7. The joke is the conspicuous, overly literal variable naming in serious low-level code, making it a nerdy programming reaction meme. It can be sent when code is technically complex but oddly or amusingly named.
