libnvme(9)

πŸ“¦ version 3.2, in arch rolling

πŸ’– libnvme(9) β€” enum nvme_id_uuid, aka the Identifier Association enum πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the libnvme manual, section 9 πŸŽ€ this one's short and sweet β€” it's literally just one little enum, and honestly? she's giving "I have one job and I do it" energy. no cap.


✨ NAME ✨

enum nvme_id_uuid β€” Identifier Association πŸ¦‹

like, that's the whole name. that's her. Identifier Association. iconic, brief, to the point πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here's the whole thing, copy it exactly bestie, don't get creative with it:

enum nvme_id_uuid {
    NVME_ID_UUID_HDR_ASSOCIATION_SHIFT ,
    NVME_ID_UUID_HDR_ASSOCIATION_MASK ,
    NVME_ID_UUID_ASSOCIATION_NONE ,
    NVME_ID_UUID_ASSOCIATION_VENDOR ,
    NVME_ID_UUID_ASSOCIATION_SUBSYSTEM_VENDOR

};

that's it. that's the enum. five constants, all in a row, living their best lives 🫢


✨ Constants ✨

so the manpage just lists these bad boys and ngl, it does not elaborate 😭 so I'm not gonna make stuff up either β€” here they are, exactly as written, in this exact order, no edits, no additions, periodt:

  • NVME_ID_UUID_HDR_ASSOCIATION_SHIFT β€” constant number one, she's the shift one πŸ’«
  • NVME_ID_UUID_HDR_ASSOCIATION_MASK β€” constant number two, the mask one 🎭
  • NVME_ID_UUID_ASSOCIATION_NONE β€” constant number three, the "none" one, lowkey the most relatable of the group πŸ™ˆ
  • NVME_ID_UUID_ASSOCIATION_VENDOR β€” constant number four, vendor association, main character energy πŸ‘‘
  • NVME_ID_UUID_ASSOCIATION_SUBSYSTEM_VENDOR β€” constant number five, subsystem vendor association, she said "I contain multitudes" 🌈
okay real talk: the original page gives you the names and literally nothing else β€” no descriptions, no values, no extra lore πŸ’€ so if you were hoping for deep analysis, this is a vibe check and the vibe is "the names are the content." don't let anyone tell you otherwise, and definitely don't let anyone tell you what these do beyond what's written here, because this page doesn't say. πŸ“

that's the whole page bestie, you ate that πŸ’œ go forth and reference your UUID associations with confidence ✨
