NVME_GET_FEATURES_ERR_RECOVERY(2)

πŸ’– nvme_get_features_err_recovery β€” bestie edition πŸ’–

okay so this is a little function from the libnvme API manual, section 2 (that's the syscall/library-functions girlies πŸ’…). buckle up, it's a short one but it's got ✨lore✨.


🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme_get_features_err_recovery β€” get the error recovery feature πŸ‘‘ lowkey iconic


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

int nvme_get_features_err_recovery (int fd , enum nvme_get_features_sel
sel , __u32 *result );

like. it takes three things. that's it. that's the whole vibe πŸ¦‹


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • fd β€” the file descriptor of your nvme device 🫢 the lil handle that says "yes hello, this drive right here"
  • sel β€” which type of attribute you want back, fr fr. it's a enum nvme_get_features_sel situation, so go look at that enum for your options
  • result β€” the command completion result, straight from CQE dword0 πŸ’€ yes that's really what it says. that's where the answer lands

πŸ’€ DESCRIPTION πŸ’€

so. um. Deprecated. not me having to tell you this 😭

it doesn't support specifying a NSID. that's the whole problem. that's the tea. πŸ“

use nvme_get_features_err_recovery2 instead β€” she's the upgraded version, she supports the NSID, she ate πŸ’…βœ¨

bestie if you're writing new code, please don't reach for this one. i'm not mad, i'm just disappointed πŸ™ˆ

🌈 RETURN 🌈

the return value is the nvme command status if a response was received β€” peep enum nvme_status_field for what those numbers mean, iykyk πŸ‘‘

or, if things went sideways: -1 with errno set. so yeah, check errno, she'll tell you what happened πŸ’œ


πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

hmm, the original didn't actually give us a SEE ALSO section here 😭 (i know, i know). but the description points you at nvme_get_features_err_recovery2, so that's your girl ✨
