✨ nvme_set_etdas ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the libnvme API manual πŸ’– β€” this one's page nvme_set_etdas, section 9, and it's literally all about flipping one lil bit. yes, one bit. the whole page. iconic behavior honestly πŸ’…


🌸 NAME 🌸

nvme_set_etdas β€” Set the Extended Telemetry Data Area 4 Supported bit πŸ¦‹

like. that's it. that's the whole job. she sets the Extended Telemetry Data Area 4 Supported bit and she does it well πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

int nvme_set_etdas (int fd , bool *changed );

not me giving you the whole signature verbatim, no cap, every space preserved, we respect the source in this house 🫢


πŸ’œ ARGUMENTS πŸ’œ

  • fd β€” File descriptor of nvme device πŸ“ like, this is the handle to your actual NVMe drive, the lil number you got from opening the thing. that's who we're talking to.
  • changed β€” boolean to indicate whether or not the host behavior support feature had been changed ✨ she's a pointer to a bool, and after the call she'll be holding the tea on whether the host behavior support feature actually got changed or not. so like, she's the receipts. keep her around πŸ‘€

πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

so here's what you get back, and it's giving very much "depends":

  • The nvme command status if a response was received β€” and for the deets on that status value, go look at enum nvme_status_field πŸ“–
  • or -1 with errno set otherwise πŸ’€
ngl bestie, if you see that -1, check errno immediately. don't just vibe and move on. that's the rule πŸ™ˆ

and that's the whole page fr fr 🌈

this lil masterpiece lives in the libnvme API manual, it's dated August 2026, and it goes by nvme_set_etdas, section 9 β€” mwah, take care of her πŸ’–βœ¨πŸŽ€
