📦 version 3.2, in arch rolling

💖 libnvme_ctrl_get_transport_handle(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to this lil page from the libnvme API manual — it’s all about snagging the transport handle tied to a controller ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

libnvme_ctrl_get_transport_handle — Get associated transport handle

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct libnvme_transport_handle * libnvme_ctrl_get_transport_handle
(struct libnvme_ctrl *c );

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • c — Controller instance

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here’s the vibe: libnvme will open the device if it’s not already opened, and it keeps an internal copy of the link handle 😌

following calls to this API retrieve that internal cached copy of the link handle. the file stays opened, and the handle stays cached, until the controller object is deleted or libnvme_ctrl_release_transport_handle is called — periodt 💅

👑 RETURN 👑

Link handle associated with c or NULL 🌈
