libnvme_ns_get_ctrl(9)

💅 libnvme_ns_get_ctrl — a whole manual page, bestie

okay so this is a page from the libnvme API manual, and it's about libnvme_ns_get_ctrl(9) — yes the (9) is part of the name, it's giving kernel-section realness. sit down, grab a strawberrry drink 🍓, and let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

libnvme_ns_get_ctrl — grab the &struct libnvme_ctrl of a namespace 🎀

like, you have a namespace, and you want its controller. that's the whole vibe.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct libnvme_ctrl * libnvme_ns_get_ctrl (struct libnvme_ns *n );

literally the whole function right there. no cap.

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• n — the namespace instance 💖 (this is your girl, the one you're asking about)

---

💀 DESCRIPTION 💀

so here's the tea: the struct libnvme_ctrl object may be NULL for a multipathed namespace. 😭

that's it. that's the whole description. not me getting emotional over a possible NULL return. main character energy from a pointer, honestly.

⚠️ bestie please check for NULL before you dereference, i am begging 🫶

---

👑 RETURN 👑

it hands you back the struct libnvme_ctrl object of n if present ✨

if it's not present… you already know. NULL. 💅

---

🌈 that's a wrap 🌈
