πŸ“¦ version 3.2, in arch rolling

πŸ’… libnvme_get_path_attr(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the libnvme API manual, section 9, page libnvme_get_path_attr. this one's short but it's lowkey iconic β€” it's your little grabby-hands function for path sysfs attributes ✨


🌸 NAME

libnvme_get_path_attr β€” read a path sysfs attribute. that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸŽ€

✨ SYNOPSIS

char * libnvme_get_path_attr (struct libnvme_path *p , const char *attr );

🫢 ARGUMENTS

  • p β€” your struct libnvme_path object, the main character of this whole operation πŸ’–
  • attr β€” the sysfs attribute name, i.e. the thing you're going to go read 🌸

πŸ‘‘ RETURN

so like, you get back a newly allocated string stuffed with the contents of attr β€” and heads up, the caller frees it, so that string is yours now, you own it, no cap 🫢

in return you'll get NULL in case of an empty value or an error. both of those land on NULL, so don't go assuming it's just errors, okay? 😭


fr fr, that's the entire page β€” no hidden flags, no secret env vars, nothing. sometimes a function is just a function πŸ’…

and that's a wrap, bestie 🌈 this was libnvme_get_path_attr from the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026. go read some sysfs attrs, you absolute icon πŸ‘‘πŸ’œπŸ“
