💅 libnvme_path_get_ana_state(9) — the libnvme API manual, bestie

okay so real talk, this one is a little function from the libnvme API manual and it literally just goes and grabs the ana_state for you. that's the whole vibe. it's giving "small but mighty" ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

libnvme_path_get_ana_state — Get ana_state.

like… that's it. that's the job. she fetches, she returns, she slays 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int libnvme_path_get_ana_state (const struct libnvme_path *p , const
       char **ana_state , const char *dflt );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • p — the struct libnvme_path instance you're querying, bestie. this is the main character you're asking about 👑
  • ana_state — where you want the value stashed when everything goes right. success goes here, no cap 💖
  • dflt — the fallback value. if it doesn't work out, this is what gets stored in ana_state instead. a little safety net, we love to see it 🫶

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 on success — iconic, we cheered 🎉
  • -ENOENT if the attribute does not exist — it's just not there, don't take it personally 😭
  • or a negative errno on failure — something went wrong, and the error code will tell you what 🔥
ngl bestie, check the return value every time. a 0 is a win, anything negative means go read the errno and figure out what happened 💀

and that's the whole page!! this little cutie is from the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026. mwah, go forth and query your path instances 💜🎀🦋
