libnvme(9)

🌸 libnvme(9) β€” the API manual, bestie edition 🌸

okay so we're deep in the libnvme API manual, section 9, and today's main character is a tiny little struct that's lowkey doing the most for AE enablement. it's giving "small but mighty" fr fr. let's get into it πŸ’…


✨ NAME ✨

struct nvme_mi_aem_enable_item β€” AE Enabled item entry

like. that's the whole name. it's an AE Enabled item entry, and honestly? iconic for that. πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct nvme_mi_aem_enable_item {
    __u8 aeel;
    __le16 aeei;
 };

look at her. two fields. zero drama. the entire struct is literally three bytes long and she KNOWS it. πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

  • aeel β€” AE Enable Length. that's the length of this structure, and the length is 3. yes bestie, three. no cap, it says 3 right there. πŸ“
  • aeei β€” AE Enable Info. the info. the AE Enable Info specifically. it's literally in the name and she ate that. ✨

🫢 quick vibe check: aeel is a __u8 and aeei is a __le16, so mind your types and your endianness, bestie β€” that le is not decorative, iykyk. πŸ’€
