nvme_direct...y_parameters(2)

✨ nvme_directive_recv_identify_parameters(2) ✨

okay bestie, so this one lives in the libnvme API manual and it's literally one function, but she's an important one 💖

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme_directive_recv_identify_parameters — grab the Directive receive identifier parameters 🎀

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int nvme_directive_recv_identify_parameters (int fd , __u32 nsid ,
       struct nvme_id_directives *id );

like, three things go in, one int comes out, no cap 💅

---

🌈 ARGUMENTS 🌈

• fd — the file descriptor of your nvme device, aka the little handle you're holding to talk to the drive 🫶
• nsid — the Namespace ID, so she knows which namespace we're being nosy about ✨
• id — the identify parameters buffer, aka where the tea gets poured in ☕

---

💜 RETURN 💜

she hands you back the nvme command status if a response actually came through — peek at enum nvme_status_field for the whole menu of possible statuses, iykyk 👑

OR, if things went sideways, you get -1 and errno is set instead 😭

ngl bestie, always check that return value. -1 means check errno fr fr, don't just vibe past it 💀

---

and that's the whole page, she's short but she ate 💅

that was the libnvme API manual, documented circa July 2026 — mwah, go forth and identify those directives bestie 🧚💖
