libnvme(9)

🦋 NAME 🦋

okay so bestie, you're looking at libnvme(9) — the API manual — and this page is literally all about struct libnbft_hfi, aka the Host Fabric Interface (HFI) Descriptor 💅 no cap, that's the whole vibe.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the struct in all its iconic glory, copy it exactly ok:

struct libnbft_hfi {
    int index;
    char transport[8];
    struct libnbft_hfi_info_tcp tcp_info;
 };

🎀 Members 🎀

• index — the HFI Descriptor Index. it's giving "where am i in the lineup" energy: this tells you the number of this HFI Descriptor in the Host Fabric Interface Descriptor List. it's an int, she's simple, she's efficient 😌
• transport — the Transport Type string, like for example 'tcp' 🫶 and heads up — it's char transport[8], so it's a fixed 8-char situation, not a grow-forever girlie.
• tcp_info — the HFI Transport Info Descriptor 🌸 and the docs are literally pointing you at struct libnvbt_hfi_info_tcp... wait no, struct libnbft_hfi_info_tcp (we do NOT typo names around here), so go read that one for the details, iykyk 💜

fr fr the rule is: don't invent fields, don't rename fields, just vibe with the three you got. index, transport, tcp_info. that's the trinity. periodt ✨

and that's the whole page bestie, you ate 💖 this lil gem came to you from libnvme(9) — the struct libnbft_hfi corner of the API manual — dated October 2026. go be a main character with your HFI descriptors now, mwah 🎀🦋⭐💅
