nvme_fdp_re...andle_update(2)

✨ NAME ✨

nvme_fdp_reclaim_unit_handle_update β€” bestie, this one updates a whole list of reclaim unit handles πŸ’…

It's part of the libnvme API manual, and honestly? She's niche but she works.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int nvme_fdp_reclaim_unit_handle_update (int fd , __u32 nsid , unsigned
       int npids , __u16 *pids );

Look at her. Four little params and she's off doing her thing πŸ¦‹


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • fd β€” the file descriptor of the nvme device. like, your way in to the device, no cap. πŸ”‘
  • nsid β€” the namespace identifier. which namespace are we talking to? this one. be specific bestie.
  • npids β€” number of placement identifiers. literally just how many pids are in the list, count them.
  • pids β€” a list of placement identifiers. this is the actual list of reclaim unit handles getting updated. she's a pointer to __u16 so she's bringing the whole crew 🫢

πŸ’– RETURN πŸ’–

So here's the tea β˜• β€” it returns the nvme command status if a response was received (check enum nvme_status_field for the deets on what that status is actually saying).

Otherwise? It's -1, and errno gets set. Classic. Not the vibe you want, but at least she tells you what went wrong ✨

fr fr, if you get -1, go read errno before you start spiralling. it's giving "diagnostic" energy, use it. 😭

Okay that's the whole page bestie, she's short but she ate πŸ’…βœ¨ This was nvme_fdp_reclaim_unit_handle_update(2) from the libnvme API manual, dated July 2026 β€” mwah, go update those reclaim unit handles, you've got this πŸ‘‘πŸŒˆ
