nvme_get_lba_status_log(2)

πŸ’– nvme_get_lba_status_log(2) πŸ’–

okay bestie, so we're in the libnvme API manual rn and literally the only thing on the agenda is this one little function that goes and fetches a whole entire LBA Status log page for you. she's giving main character energy, she's giving "let me grab that for you", and honestly? we're obsessed. ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme_get_lba_status_log β€” Retrieve the LBA Status log page

no cap, that's the whole job. she retrieves the LBA Status log page. that's it, that's her. πŸ’…

πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

int nvme_get_lba_status_log (int fd , bool rae , struct
nvme_lba_status_log **log );

like. look at that signature. three little arguments and she's off to the races. πŸ¦‹


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • fd β€” File descriptor of the nvme device. yes bestie, we need the actual device fd, we can't just manifest the log out of thin air (unfortunately 😭).
  • rae β€” Retain asynchronous events. πŸ‘‘
  • log β€” On success, set to the value of the allocated and retrieved log. so she allocates it AND retrieves it β€” a dual threat, an icon, a legend. on success this pointer gets pointed at the goods. 🫢

🧚 RETURN 🧚

So here's the vibe check on what comes back at you:

the nvme command status if a response was received (see enum nvme_status_field) πŸ’€ or -1 with errno set otherwise.

fr fr, if you get that -1 back, check errno β€” she's trying to tell you something and you better listen. πŸ™ˆ

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay so lowkey there isn't like a big juicy list of other pages here, but the return section did shout out enum nvme_status_field β€” that's where you go to decode whatever status she hands you. iykyk. πŸ’œ


written in the libnvme era, dated July 2026 β€” this page came from the libnvme API manual release, and she will absolutely still be retrieving log pages when the rest of us are in our flop era. ⭐

slay, that's the whole page, go get your log bestie πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹πŸŒΈ
