here’s the exact signature, keep it safe and sound:

       void nvme_init_identify_supported_ctrl_state_formats (struct
       libnvme_passthru_cmd *cmd , struct nvme_supported_ctrl_state_formats
       *formats );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • cmd β€” Command data structure to initialize. that’s the thing getting set up, bestie 🫢
  • formats β€” User space destination address to transfer the data. literally where the data is headed ✨

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

so what does it actually do? It initializes the passthru command buffer for the Identify command with CNS value NVME_IDENTIFY_CNS_SUPPORTED_CTRL_STATE_FORMATS. periodt πŸ’…πŸ”₯

That’s the whole vibe: command buffer gets initialized, Identify command gets its CNS value, and everything is exactly as iconic as it sounds.
