💜 libnvme_get_log(9) — bestie edition

okay so this is a page from the libnvme API manual, and it's literally about getting log page data. grab a strawberry drink 🍓 and let's go.

✨ NAME ✨

libnvme_get_log — get log page data 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int libnvme_get_log (struct libnvme_transport_handle *hdl , struct libnvme_passthru_cmd *cmd , bool rae , __u32 xfer_len );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• hdl — the transport handle, aka the main character of this whole operation 🫶
• cmd — the passthru command. yep, that one.
• rae — retain asynchronous events ✨ (it's a bool, so it's giving yes/no energy)
• xfer_len — max log transfer size per request, used to split the total. so if the log is huge, this is what keeps it from doing too much in one go 😭 lowkey a team player.

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

• 0 on success — slay 👑
• the nvme command status if a response was received (see enum nvme_status_field) 🦋
• or a negative error otherwise 💀

ngl, read the return value. every single time. that's the vibe check. ⭐
