nvme_ctrl_get_src_addr(2)

✨ NAME ✨

nvme_ctrl_get_src_addr — bestie, this one is literally just here to yoink the src_addr out of the c->address string 💅 (and yes, it lives in the libnvme API manual, page 2, we stan a syscall-adjacent queen)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

char * nvme_ctrl_get_src_addr (nvme_ctrl_t c , char *src_addr , size_t
src_addr_len );

okay so that's the whole vibe. three little things go in, one lil pointer comes out 🎀

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• c — the Controller instance, aka the main character of this operation 👑
• src_addr — where to copy the src_addr. the size must be at least INET6_ADDRSTRLEN, no negotiating, that is the law bestie 😭
• src_addr_len — the length of the buffer src_addr. it's giving "please tell me how much room I have" 🫶

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

On success you get a pointer to src_addr — slay, iconic, we love to see it ✨

If it fails to extract the src_addr? You get NULL. not a pointer, not a partial vibe, just NULL. 💀 handle it accordingly, fr fr.

---

lowkey reminder: src_addr needs enough room for at least INET6_ADDRSTRLEN, so don't be out here passing a tiny little buffer and acting surprised 🌈
