✨ libnvme(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the libnvme API Manual β€” this is the part where we talk about one very specific little enum, and honestly? it's giving "small but crucial" πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

enum nvme_mi_pda_dformat β€” the NVMe-MI PDA Command's Data Format, aka DFORMAT πŸ’–

Like, no cap, that's the whole vibe of this page: it's a format enum for a PDA command. Slay.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

enum nvme_mi_pda_dformat {
    nvme_mi_pda_dformat_4kib ,
    nvme_mi_pda_dformat_512b ,
    nvme_mi_pda_dformat_byte

};

look at it. three constants. zero drama. main character energy fr fr πŸ¦‹


⭐ Constants ⭐

  • nvme_mi_pda_dformat_4kib β€” 4KiB data format. iconic, chunky, does the most in the best way.
  • nvme_mi_pda_dformat_512b β€” 512B data format. the classic, the reliable one, lowkey the GOAT.
  • nvme_mi_pda_dformat_byte β€” Byte Level data format. tiny but mighty, byte-by-byte, obsessed 😭

bestie reminder: these are literally the only three values in the enum β€” 4kib, 512b, and byte. don't go inventing a fourth, that's not the vibe πŸ™ˆ

and that's the whole page!! thank you for coming to my TED talk πŸ’œ
