πŸ’… libnvme(9) β€” API Manual

okay bestie, so this is a page from the libnvme API Manual, section 9, and it's literally all about one enum. one. single. enum. and honestly? she's iconic for it. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

enum nvme_id_ctrl_mec β€” flags indicating the capabilities of the Management Endpoint in the Controller, &struct nvme_id_ctrl.mec. no cap, that's the whole vibe. it's giving "small but mighty". πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the lineup, bestie β€” look at her go:

enum nvme_id_ctrl_mec {
    NVME_CTRL_MEC_TWPME_SHIFT ,
    NVME_CTRL_MEC_PCIEME_SHIFT ,
    NVME_CTRL_MEC_TWPME_MASK ,
    NVME_CTRL_MEC_PCIEME_MASK ,
    NVME_CTRL_MEC_TWPME ,
    NVME_CTRL_MEC_PCIEME

};

like, six constants, zero drama. we love a tidy enum. ✨


πŸ‘‘ Constants πŸ‘‘

okay so these are the members, and I need you to memorise them because they will come up. fr fr. πŸ’œ

  • NVME_CTRL_MEC_TWPME_SHIFT β€” the TWPME shift. that's it, that's the whole description. she's mysterious, she's minimal, she's serving. 🫢
  • NVME_CTRL_MEC_PCIEME_SHIFT β€” the PCIEME shift. same energy. short and sweet. πŸ’…
  • NVME_CTRL_MEC_TWPME_MASK β€” the TWPME mask. yes bestie, a mask. for the shift. that's how this works. 🌸
  • NVME_CTRL_MEC_PCIEME_MASK β€” the PCIEME mask. matching set with the one above, we love coordinated accessories. πŸŽ€
  • NVME_CTRL_MEC_TWPME β€” okay this one actually does something. if it's set, then the NVM Subsystem contains one or more Management Endpoints on the 2-Wire port. lowkey the main character of this enum. πŸ”₯
  • NVME_CTRL_MEC_PCIEME β€” and if this one is set, then the NVM Subsystem contains one or more Management Endpoints on one or more PCIe ports. highkey the other main character. there are two of them. it's a duo. πŸ‘‘
real talk: these are capability flags, so "if set" means exactly what it says β€” don't go assuming anything beyond what's written here, bestie. iykyk. πŸ’€

and that's the whole page!! nothing scary, nothing hidden, just six constants living their best lives in an enum. you ate that, honestly. 🌈
