libnvme(9)

πŸ“¦ version 3.2, in arch rolling

πŸ’– libnvme(9) β€” the enum nvme_aqa glow-up πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the libnvme manual page (yes, section 9, we're in kernel/API land now 🧚). today's main character is a tiny little enum and honestly? she's doing the most with very little. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

enum nvme_aqa β€” this field indicates the admin queue attributes

like, that's it. that's her whole job. and she ate πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

here's the whole vibe, verbatim, no cap:

enum nvme_aqa {
    NVME_AQA_ASQS_SHIFT ,
    NVME_AQA_ACQS_SHIFT ,
    NVME_AQA_ASQS_MASK ,
    NVME_AQA_ACQS_MASK

};

four constants. that's the squad. 🫢


πŸŽ€ Constants πŸŽ€

okay so these are the actual members, and every single one is a shift or a mask β€” they're not values, they're tools for pulling bits out of the AQA field. iykyk πŸ”₯

  • NVME_AQA_ASQS_SHIFT β€” shift amount to get the admin submission queue size. you shift by this to slide those bits into place, periodt 🌟
  • NVME_AQA_ACQS_SHIFT β€” shift amount to get the admin completion queue size. same energy, completion side πŸ¦‹
  • NVME_AQA_ASQS_MASK β€” mask to get the admin submission queue size. & it and the submission queue size bits are yours πŸ‘‘
  • NVME_AQA_ACQS_MASK β€” mask to get the admin completion queue size. & it and boom, completion queue size, slay πŸ’…
ngl there's nothing sneaky here β€” no defaults, no exit codes, no env vars, no files. it's four enum constants and a dream. lowkey iconic 🌈

and that's the whole page, bestie πŸ’œ this was the API Manual for libnvme(9), dated October 2026 β€” literally stamped and everything. go forth and mask your queue sizes correctly, ily πŸŽ€βœ¨πŸ’–
