πŸ’… libnvme(9) β€” the API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the libnvme API manual, and today's main character is a lil struct that honestly ate. it's giving "discovery era" and i'm obsessed. let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

struct libnbft_discovery β€” the Discovery Descriptor πŸ’« (yes that's literally its whole job, no notes)


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

so here's the whole vibe, copy it exactly okay, character for character, no improvising:

struct libnbft_discovery {
    int index;
    struct libnbft_security *security;
    struct libnbft_hfi *hfi;
    char *uri;
    char *nqn;
 };

like… look at her. five fields. flawless. no cap 🫢


πŸ¦‹ Members πŸ¦‹

the number of this Discovery Descriptor in the Discovery Descriptor List. that's it, that's her whole personality β€” she's the index, she knows her place in the list, and honestly? iconic ✨
