libnvme_ctrl_get_name(9)

📦 version 3.2, in arch rolling

💅 libnvme_ctrl_get_name — the libnvme API manual, bestie ✨

okay so real quick: this one's from the libnvme API manual, and it's genuinely the shortest little function ever — but she's iconic and we love her 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

libnvme_ctrl_get_name — Get name. that's it. that's the whole job. no cap 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

const char * libnvme_ctrl_get_name (const struct libnvme_ctrl *p );

bestie look at her — takes one pointer, returns a const char *. literally the simplest vibe check in the whole library 🌈

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • p — The struct libnvme_ctrl instance to query. yeah that's the controller you're asking about. she's the main character here 👑

💜 RETURN 💜

  • The value of the name field, or NULL if not set.

so like — you get the name back, or you get NULL and you just gotta deal with it 😭 always check, fr fr. NULL is not a name, it's a vibe 💀

lowkey the whole function is one field access but someone had to write the manpage, so here we are 🧚

and that's the page!! no bugs mentioned, no options, no env vars — she's a clean little icon 🦋

sign-off time: this cutie is from libnvme, dated October 2026, and it's filed under libnvme_ctrl_get_name(9) — periodt 💅✨🍓
