nvme_ns_identify(2)

πŸ’– nvme_ns_identify(2) β€” the libnvme API manual, but make it make sense πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is page nvme_ns_identify(2) from the libnvme API manual, and it's literally one of the little baby functions that does exactly one job and does it flawlessly. no notes. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

nvme_ns_identify β€” issue an 'identify namespace' command πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int nvme_ns_identify (nvme_ns_t n , struct nvme_id_ns *ns );

like yes that's it, that's the whole thing πŸ’…


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • n β€” the namespace instance. your main character namespace. πŸ‘‘
  • ns β€” the nvme_id_ns buffer. this is where the tea gets poured. πŸ“

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

So what does it actually do? It writes the data returned by the 'identify namespace' command straight into ns. that's the vibe. you hand it a namespace, you hand it a buffer, and it fills that buffer up with the identify data. no cap, that's the entire personality. ✨🫢


✨ RETURN ✨

  • 0 β€” success!! slay. πŸŽ‰
  • -1 β€” error. πŸ’€ not the vibe, but at least you know.

and that's the whole page, bestie. short, sweet, and iconic. 🌈
