libnvme(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the libnvme API manual, section 9 — we’re talking about struct nbft_host, aka the Host Descriptor (Figure 10), and it’s literally the C struct holding host-descriptor info. no cap, it’s giving “small struct, big main-character energy” 👑💅

✨ NAME ✨

struct nbft_host — Host Descriptor (Figure 10) 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

       struct nbft_host {
           __u8 structure_id;
           __u8 flags;
           __u8 host_id[16];
           struct nbft_heap_obj host_nqn_obj;
           __u8 reserved[8];
        };

💅 Members 💅

• structure_id — Structure ID: this field shall be set to 2h (i.e., Host Descriptor; #NBFT_DESC_HOST). like, that’s the whole assignment, bestie 🎯
• flags — Host Flags, see enum nbft_host_flags ✨
• host_id — Host ID: this field shall be set to the Host Identifier. Also, this field shall not be empty if the NBFT and NVMe Boot are supported by the Platform. important detail, don’t skip it 🫶
• host_nqn_obj — Host NQN Heap Object Reference: this field indicates a heap object containing a Host NQN. This object shall not be empty if the NBFT and NVMe Boot are supported by the Platform. okay so this one is lowkey carrying the NQN reference 💖
• reserved — Reserved. that’s it. reserved. respectfully 😌
