libnvme(9)

πŸ“¦ version 3.2, in arch rolling

πŸ’… libnvme(9) β€” like, the API Manual bestie, but make it enum

okay so before we even get into it: this page lives in the API Manual for libnvme(9), and it's honestly a tiny little icon β€” one enum, two constants, zero drama. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

enum nvme_rate_limiting_mode β€” Rate Limiting Control - Rate Limiting Mode (RLM)

like… yes, the name is a mouthful, but it's literally just the enum that tells you how the rate limiting is limiting. RLM. that's the vibe check πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

enum nvme_rate_limiting_mode {
    NVME_RATE_LIMITING_MODE_HARD_LIMIT ,
    NVME_RATE_LIMITING_MODE_SOFT_LIMIT

};

not me showing you the whole thing and it's literally two (2) constants 😭 short king behavior fr fr πŸ‘‘


⭐ Constants ⭐

the whole entire menu. two items. both iconic, both important, don't skip either:

  • NVME_RATE_LIMITING_MODE_HARD_LIMIT β€” Hard Limit mode. that's the "no, like, absolutely not" one πŸ’€
  • NVME_RATE_LIMITING_MODE_SOFT_LIMIT β€” Soft Limit mode. the "okay but maybe chill a little" one πŸ™ˆ
bestie pls don't mix them up β€” one is hard and one is soft and the words do actually mean what they say πŸ’–

🫢 the cute lil sign-off 🫢

and that's the whole page! no cap, that's genuinely it β€” this one's a short read, so go forth and rate-limit responsibly 🌈

this little gem is from October 2026, and it's the enum nvme_rate_limiting_mode page out of libnvme(9). mwah, take care of her πŸ’œπŸŽ€
