nvme_mi_admin_ns_attach(2)

πŸ’– nvme_mi_admin_ns_attach β€” the libnvme API manual, bestie edition πŸ’–

okay so, welcome to nvme_mi_admin_ns_attach(2) from the libnvme API manual ✨ this is the one where you attach a namespace to controller(s) or, like, detach it β€” your choice, she contains multitudes πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme_mi_admin_ns_attach β€” attach or detach namespace to controller(s) πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int nvme_mi_admin_ns_attach (nvme_mi_ctrl_t ctrl , struct
nvme_ns_attach_args *args );

no cap, that's literally the whole signature. two things go in, a status comes out 🫢


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • ctrl β€” the controller you're sending the command to. yes, that controller. she's the main character here πŸ‘‘
  • args β€” the Namespace Attach command arguments. all the juicy details about what you're attaching (or detaching, we don't judge) live in here πŸ“

πŸ’œ RETURN πŸ’œ

if a response came back, you get the nvme command status (go look at enum nvme_status_field for the deets, iykyk). if it did not come back, you get -1 and errno is set instead 😭

fr fr, check errno when you see that -1, she's not decorative πŸ’€

and that's the whole vibe, periodt ✨ go attach something (or don't, detachment is also iconic) 🌈
