NVME_INIT_GET_FEATURES_VOLATILE_WC-LIBNVME3(2)
π NAME π
Okay so bestie, gather round: nvme_init_get_features_volatile_wc β that's literally the whole name, yes it's a mouthful, yes it ate β and what it does is initialize a passthru command for Get Features - Volatile Write Cache. That's it. That's the gig. Iconic, honestly. This page lives in the libnvme API manual (section 9, for the curious π), so you already know it's some kernel-adjacent realness.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void nvme_init_get_features_volatile_wc (struct libnvme_passthru_cmd
*cmd , enum nvme_get_features_sel sel );
No return value, because she doesn't need to return anything β she just sets things up and leaves. Main character energy fr fr. π
π«Ά ARGUMENTS π«Ά
cmdβ the passthru command you're gonna use. Hand it over and she'll do her little setup thing on it. πselβ picks which type of attribute you want back, bestie. Wanna know your options? Go peek atenum nvme_get_features_sel, it's all laid out there. π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
So here's the tea: this function initializes the passthru command buffer for the Get Features command, and it sets the FID value to NVME_FEAT_FID_VOLATILE_WC.
That's the whole vibe check. Buffer goes in, FID gets stamped on, you go live your life. No cap. π β¨
Ngl bestie, if you were hoping for a twist ending β there isn't one. It's a setup helper. It sets up. That's the plot. π¦
β¨ that's the whole page, mwah π β¨
Cute little sign-off so you know where this came from: this is the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026, and the page is nvme_init_get_features_volatile_wc(9) β the one and only. Slay, go initialize some features. πππ
