πŸ’– nvme_ns_identify_descs(2) πŸ’–

okay bestie, gather round, because we're diving into the libnvme API manual and this one is a little cutie πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

nvme_ns_identify_descs β€” the function that goes and issues an 'identify descriptors' command for you. no cap, that's literally its whole job πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int nvme_ns_identify_descs (nvme_ns_t n , struct nvme_ns_id_desc *descs
);

ik, the line break in there is a lil chaotic, but it's giving exactly what it needs to give πŸ¦‹


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • n β€” your Namespace instance, the lil main character we're asking the question about πŸ‘‘
  • descs β€” the List of identify descriptors, aka where all the tea is gonna land πŸ“

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the vibe: this function takes the data that the 'identify descriptors' command hands back and writes it straight into descs. that's it. that's the whole plot. it's not complicated and honestly? we love that for it 🌸


✨ RETURN ✨

  • 0 on success β€” she ate and left no crumbs ✨
  • -1 on error β€” not the moment, bestie, go check your setup 😭

fr fr, remember: 0 good, -1 bad. keep that in your notes app πŸ“

and that's the whole page, bestie, you understood it perfectly, I'm so proud 🫢
