nvme_clear_etdas(9)

πŸ’– nvme_clear_etdas β€” the libnvme API manual, but make it cute πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the libnvme API manual, page nvme_clear_etdas πŸŽ€ no cap, this one is short and sweet and lowkey iconic.


✨ NAME ✨

nvme_clear_etdas β€” Clear the Extended Telemetry Data Area 4 Supported bit πŸ§ΉπŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int nvme_clear_etdas (int fd , bool *changed );

that's it. that's the whole call. she's simple, she's effective πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ ARGUMENTS πŸ‘‘

  • fd β€” the file descriptor of the nvme device, fr fr. it's literally just how you tell her which drive we're talking to 🫢
  • changed β€” a boolean πŸŽ€ it tells you whether or not the host behavior support feature had been changed. so like, a lil "did something move?" flag, iykyk ✨

πŸ’œ RETURN πŸ’œ

she gives you the nvme command status if a response was received (peep enum nvme_status_field for the deets πŸ‘€). otherwise you get -1 and errno is set. so if it's not a real status, it's the sad path, no cap 😭


not me actually reading the return value instead of ignoring it πŸ’€ bestie please check it, the errno is RIGHT there.

and that's the whole page, periodt ✨ this was the libnvme API manual entry for nvme_clear_etdas, and the source/version footer said it was dated August 2026 β€” so yeah, freshly stamped, main character energy, obsessed πŸ’–πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈπŸ’…
