ngl that’s the whole signature, no cap. 🫢

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • fctx β€” Fabrics context of a discovery controller. 🧚
  • config β€” Resolved configuration, or NULL. πŸ™ˆ
  • conn β€” Connection of the discovery controller in config. πŸ’–

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so here’s the tea β˜• libnvmf_discover connects to the controllers in the discovery log page. that’s the main character energy of this whole situation. πŸ’…

With a configuration, a controller gets the KX-HMAC-CHAP secrets of the [Subsystem] or [Discovery Controller] section with its NQN. the section must be in the same file as conn. iykyk β€” same file, no exceptions. ✨

If no section sets the host secret, the controller uses the host secret of the discovery controller. this is also what happens without a configuration. and the controller secret comes only from a section. lowkey crucial, ngl. πŸ’–

bestie, the caller keeps ownership of config and conn. they must stay valid until libnvmf_discover returns. no cap β€” don’t let them expire early 😭🫢
