💅 libnvmf_tid_str(9) — the libnvme API manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so real quick, this page lives in the libnvme API manual and it's all about libnvmf_tid_str — say that three times fast, i dare you 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

libnvmf_tid_str — bestie, it gives you the human-readable string form of a TID, and like… it's for logging. that's the whole vibe 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

const char * libnvmf_tid_str (const struct libnvmf_tid *tid );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• tid — the transport ID. that's it. that's the whole list, iconic of it honestly 👑

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so it returns a string shaped exactly like this:

(transport, traddr, trsvcid[, subsysnqn][, host_iface][, host_traddr])

and no cap, this is the same rendering that nvme-stas uses, so logs from both tools line up perfectly — matching outfits, fr fr 💖

lowkey important: hostnqn and hostid are omitted. not invited to the function, not coming to the party 🙈

also it's lazily computed and cached (efficient queen ✨), and any setter invalidates that cache. so the second someone touches a setter, the cached string is like "i don't know her" 💀

🔥 RETURN 🔥

you get the cached string back 🎀 — or NULL if tid is NULL, or if the allocation failed 😭 (yes. both. those are the only two reasons. do not invent more.)

---

ngl if you see a NULL come back, check your tid first before you start spiralling 🫶

and that's the page, bestie — brought to you by the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026, and libnvmf_tid_str signing off with main character energy 👑🦋✨
