libnvme(2)

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay so bestie, gather round β€” enum nvme_mi_elem is giving Element Descriptor Types ✨ like that's literally the whole vibe of this page πŸ¦‹

This is part of the libnvme API manual, and it's one of those lil building-block pages that nobody screams about but everybody depends on. iykyk πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

no cap, here's the whole thing, exactly as it lives:

enum nvme_mi_elem {
    NVME_MI_ELEM_EED ,
    NVME_MI_ELEM_USCE ,
    NVME_MI_ELEM_ECED ,
    NVME_MI_ELEM_LED ,
    NVME_MI_ELEM_SMBMED ,
    NVME_MI_ELEM_PCIESED ,
    NVME_MI_ELEM_NVMED

};

look at those seven constants just standing there in a row. icons. all of them. πŸ‘‘


🌸 Constants 🌸

okay so this is the part where we meet the whole squad one by one 🫢 every single one, no skipping, no gatekeeping:

  • NVME_MI_ELEM_EED β€” Extended Element Descriptor</p> πŸ’–
  • NVME_MI_ELEM_USCE β€” Upstream Connector Element Descriptor ✨ pointing upstream like it owns the place
  • NVME_MI_ELEM_ECED β€” Expansion Connector Element Descriptor 🌈 expansion?? we love growth here
  • NVME_MI_ELEM_LED β€” Label Element Descriptor 🏷️ yes she's literally the label one, she said "let me introduce myself"
  • NVME_MI_ELEM_SMBMED β€” SMBus/I2C Mux Element Descriptor πŸ”Œ mux girlie stays booked and busy
  • NVME_MI_ELEM_PCIESED β€” PCIe Switch Element Descriptor πŸ”₯ switch it up, switch it up
  • NVME_MI_ELEM_NVMED β€” NVM Subsystem Element Descriptor πŸ‘‘ the final boss, the main character, closing out the list with NVM Subsystem energy

reminder bestie: these are the enum's constants, exactly as declared. don't go renaming them in your head just because they're a mouthful 😭 copy them character for character or the compiler WILL humble you πŸ’€

mwah β€” this page is straight out of the libnvme API Manual, catalogued under enum nvme_mi_elem, and stamped with a cute lil July 2026 date. stay nerdy, stay hydrated πŸ“πŸ§šπŸ’œ
