πŸ’– libnvme_ctrl_set_firmware(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the libnvme API manual ✨ β€” this is the page for libnvme_ctrl_set_firmware, and honestly? it's a little one. a snack, not a meal. but we're gonna do it right 🫢


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

libnvme_ctrl_set_firmware β€” set firmware. that's it. that's the whole vibe πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void libnvme_ctrl_set_firmware (struct libnvme_ctrl *p , const char
*firmware );

like, look at that signature. returns void, so it's giving "i do the thing and i don't report back" energy 😌 no return value to check, no drama.


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • p β€” the struct libnvme_ctrl instance you're updating. this is the main character here πŸ‘‘ it's the controller you're setting the firmware on.
  • firmware β€” the new string. a copy is stored, so ngl you don't have to keep your original string alive after this β€” it's already been copied 🧚 pass NULL to clear it. yes, NULL is the "never mind, wipe it" option πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’€ quick reminder bestie: firmware gets copied, not referenced. and NULL = clear. don't forget or you'll be sad later 😭

and that's the whole page!! iconic, brief, slayed. no cap, sometimes the small manpages are the best ones 🌈⭐
