libnvmf_uri_parse(9)

πŸ“¦ version 3.2, in arch rolling

🌸 libnvmf_uri_parse(9) β€” like, the whole vibe πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to libnvmf_uri_parse, straight outta the libnvme API manual ✨ this is a section 9 page (kernel/API land, iykyk) and it's literally just one little function that eats a URI string and hands u back a shiny object πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

libnvmf_uri_parse β€” parse the URI string πŸ¦‹ that's it. that's the whole job. no cap.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int libnvmf_uri_parse (const char *str , struct libnvmf_uri **uri );

like yes the spacing is a lil weird, do NOT come for me, that's exactly how it's written πŸ’€ copy it verbatim bestie 🫢


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • str β€” the URI string itself 🌈 the raw text u want parsed, ur main character input fr
  • uri β€” the URI object to return πŸ‘‘ this is the out-param, so it's a struct libnvmf_uri ** β€” a pointer to a pointer, yes it's giving double-pointer energy and yes that's correct πŸ’…

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the tea β˜• β€” libnvmf_uri_parse parses the URI string as defined in the NVM Express Boot Specification 🌟 that's the actual spec it follows, not vibes-based parsing, an actual spec, iconic behavior honestly πŸŽ€

the supported URI elements lowkey look exactly like this πŸ‘‡

nvme+tcp://userhost:port/subsys_nqn/nid?query=val#fragment

look at her. the whole structure is right there in one line 🌸 u got the scheme nvme+tcp://, then userhost:port, then /subsys_nqn/nid, then the ?query=val bit, then #fragment at the end β€” all the pieces, in order, slaying ✨


✨ RETURN ✨

  • 0 on success πŸ˜ŒπŸ’– everything worked, go off
  • negative error code otherwise πŸ˜­πŸ’€ so like, if it's negative, something went sideways β€” check it, don't ignore it, that's the whole point of a return value bestie

ngl if u skip the return check ur gonna have a bad time πŸ™ˆ 0 = good, negative = bad. that's the vibe check. don't fail it.

okay that's the page!! this was libnvmf_uri_parse(9) from the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026 β€” go parse some URIs, ily, bye πŸ§šπŸ’œπŸ“
