✨ nvme_ctrl_get_host_iface(2) ✨

okay bestie, pull up a chair πŸͺ‘ because we're diving into the libnvme API manual and this one is a lil cutie. it's nvme_ctrl_get_host_iface from section 2 of the manual, and lowkey it does exactly one thing but it does it flawlessly πŸ’…


πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

nvme_ctrl_get_host_iface β€” Host interface name of a controller

like, the whole point is: tell me the host interface name of a controller, pls and thank u 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

const char * nvme_ctrl_get_host_iface (nvme_ctrl_t c );

no cap, that's the whole signature. she takes one argument and returns a const char * ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • c β€” Controller instance

that's it. one controller instance, that's the vibe. main character energy fr fr πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ RETURN πŸ¦‹

Host interface name of c (if present)

so if the host interface name is there, you get it. if it's not present? well… you get whatever "not present" gives you, and that's on periodt 😭 (the manpage keeps it mysterious, so we keep it mysterious too).


πŸ’€ bestie reminder: this page only says the return is the host interface name of c if present. no extra lore, no guesses, no inventing behaviour. we stay factual in this group chat.

that's the whole page, gorgeous 🌈 go forth and fetch those host interface names, and remember: it's giving "tiny function, big potential." πŸ’œ
