NVME_GET_LOG_CHANGED_NS_LIST(2)

πŸ’– nvme_get_log_changed_ns_list(2) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the libnvme API manual β€” yes we're reading man pages for fun now, this is who we are, and honestly? it's giving main character energy. sit down, grab a boba, we're doing namespace drama today 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

nvme_get_log_changed_ns_list β€” Retrieve namespace changed list

like… it goes and gets the list of namespaces that changed. that's it. that's the girl. πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int nvme_get_log_changed_ns_list (int fd , bool rae , struct
nvme_ns_list *ns_log );

no cap, that's the whole signature. three lil arguments, one int coming back at ya. πŸ’…


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • fd β€” File descriptor of nvme device. it's literally the lil hand you're holding to talk to your nvme device, iconic. πŸ”₯
  • rae β€” Retain asynchronous events. it's a bool, it's either yes bestie or no bestie. πŸ™ˆ
  • ns_log β€” User address to store the log page. this is where the log page goes to live, you're handing it a home. 🏠

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so the tea is: this log page describes namespaces attached to this controller that have changed since the last time the namespace was identified, been added, or deleted. πŸ‘‘

translation? the controller is basically keeping receipts πŸ“ on every namespace that got identified, got added, or got deleted since you last checked in on it. if something moved, this page knows. it's the group chat that never misses. πŸ’€


⭐ RETURN ⭐

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

so either you get the status back like a good lil function, or you get -1 and errno gets set β€” which is the code way of saying "it's not me, it's the error" 😭 go check enum nvme_status_field for the deets, iykyk.

⚠️ heads up bestie: -1 means check errno, don't just sit there confused. we've all been there but we don't have to stay there. πŸ’œ

🌈 the sign-off 🌈
