NVME_INIT_GET_FEATURES_PERSONALITY-LIBNVME3(2)

📦 version 3.2, in arch rolling

💅 nvme_init_get_features_personality 💅

okay so bestie, quick vibe check: this is a page from the libnvme API manual, section 9 — yes we're in the big-kid section, main character energy only 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

nvme_init_get_features_personality — the glow-up that initializes your passthru command for Get Features – Configurable Device Personality 🦋

📜 SYNOPSIS 📜

void nvme_init_get_features_personality (struct libnvme_passthru_cmd
*cmd , enum nvme_get_features_sel sel , __u8 perid , void *data , __u32
len );

like, that's the whole signature, no cap. copy it exactly, she's built different 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • cmd — the passthru command you're gonna use. this is the vessel, the moment, the main character ✨
  • sel — selects which type of attribute to hand back to you, mwah. peek at enum nvme_get_features_sel for the deets 👀
  • perid — the Personality Identifier (PERID), no big deal. check enum nvme_personality_identifier when you need the actual list 💖
  • data — a buffer for the Personality Identifier–specific data, or NULL if this personality doesn't use the data buffer at all. flaky icon, honestly 🙈
  • len — the length of data, bestie. literally just how long it is 🍓

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so what does she actually do? she initializes the passthru command buffer for the Get Features command, with the FID value set to NVME_FEAT_FID_CONF_DEV_PERSONALITY ⭐

that's it, that's the whole personality — literally 💀

lowkey reminder: data can legit be NULL if the personality in question doesn't bother with the data buffer. don't come for her 🌈

🧚 the cute little sign-off 🧚

this iconic moment brought to you by the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026 — and the header up top (that truncated nvme_init_ge..._personality(9) situation, iykyk) stays iconic forever 💜

slay, go initialize that command buffer 🔥👑
