nvme_read(2)

✨ nvme_read ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the nvme_read(2) page from the libnvme API manual 💖 this is where you learn how to slide a lil read command over to your NVMe device, and honestly? it's giving "one function, zero drama." let's get into it 🦋

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme_read — submit an nvme user read command 👑

like, you're literally asking the drive to read something for you. main character energy fr fr 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int nvme_read (struct nvme_io_args *args );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one function, one pointer, no cap ✨

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• args — a struct nvme_io_args argument structure. yes babe, it's a struct, it's the argument structure, it holds the arg-ness. pass it in and let it cook 🍓

---

💜 RETURN 💜

so here's the tea on what you get back:

• the nvme command status if a response was received (peep enum nvme_status_field for the deets, iykyk 👀)
• or -1 with errno set otherwise 😭

ngl bestie, if you see that -1, check your errno immediately. it's not ghosting you, it's telling you something 💀
