NVME_INIT_GET_LOG_BOOT_PARTITION-LIBNVME3(2)

🌸 nvme_init_get_log_boot_partition — libnvme API manual 🎀

okay bestie, so this is a page from the libnvme API manual, and it's about one very specific little function: nvme_init_get_log_boot_partition (the manpage section is 9, iykyk). It's short, it's sweet, and it does exactly one thing — let's get into it 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

nvme_init_get_log_boot_partition — Initialize passthru command for Boot Partition 🦋

That's it. That's the whole job. She's a one-task queen and she does it well, no cap.

---

⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void nvme_init_get_log_boot_partition (struct libnvme_passthru_cmd *cmd
, __u8 lsp , struct nvme_boot_partition *part , __u32 len );

Look at her 🥹 Four little params, returns void — she doesn't even need to tell you how it went, she just does it. Main character energy fr.

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• cmd — the passthru command you're gonna use 💖 like, this is the thing getting set up, hand her the buffer and she'll fill it in.
• lsp — the log specified field of LID 👑 it's a __u8, so keep it tidy.
• part — user address to store the log page 🫶 yes bestie, you own that memory, she's just writing the log page into it.
• len — the allocated size, minimum struct nvme_boot_partition ⭐ this one's important — don't go smaller than that or it's giving chaos.

ngl, "minimum struct nvme_boot_partition" is the vibe check here — that's the floor, not the ceiling 🌈

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what does she actually do? She initializes the passthru command buffer for the Get Log command, with the LID value set to NVME_LOG_LID_BOOT_PARTITION ✨

That's the whole thing. She's basically the setup bestie for the Get Log passthru — you bring the cmd, the lsp, your part buffer and its len, and she makes sure the command buffer is pointed at the Boot Partition log page. Periodt 💅

No return value, no drama, no surprises — just a clean little initialization 🧚

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

lowkey this page keeps to itself — the original doesn't list any SEE ALSO refs, so there's nothing extra to link you to 🙈 (go read the rest of the libnvme API manual if you're nosy, but that's me being chatty, not the page.)

---

🌸 tiny reminder: this is the libnvme API manual, so all the usual "this is a library function, mind your pointers, mind your buffer sizes" energy applies 😭

---

okay that's the whole page, bestie — short and iconic, just like her 💖

sign-off time 🎀: this one came from the libnvme API manual, dated October 2026, and the page is nvme_init_get_log_boot_partition(9) — see you in the next one, muah 💋✨🦋
