nvme_set_fe..._temp_thresh(2)

πŸ’– nvme_set_fe..._temp_thresh β€” from the libnvme API manual ✨

okay so bestie, this is a <rainbow>libnvme</rainbow> girlie and she's here to set a temperature threshold feature on your NVMe device. that's it, that's the whole vibe. her full government name is nvme_set_features_temp_thresh and she is absolutely the main character of your thermal management era πŸŽ€


🌑️ NAME 🌑️

nvme_set_features_temp_thresh β€” Set temperature threshold feature. literally what it says on the tin, no cap πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int nvme_set_features_temp_thresh (int fd , __u16 tmpth , __u8 tmpsel ,
enum nvme_feat_tmpthresh_thsel thsel , bool save , __u32 *result );

she takes six (6) whole arguments, yes she's high maintenance, and that's iconic of her πŸ‘‘


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • fd β€” the file descriptor of your nvme device. this is how she finds your drive, it's giving "let me in bestie" πŸ”‘
  • tmpth β€” Temperature Threshold. the actual number, a __u16, so she's got range πŸ’«
  • tmpsel β€” Threshold Temperature Select. a __u8, picking which thing we're thresholding 🎯
  • thsel β€” Threshold Type Select. this one's an enum nvme_feat_tmpthresh_thsel, so like, the type of threshold situation we're in ✨
  • save β€” Save value across power states. a bool, so true means it survives a lil nap (power cycle), false means it does not, periodt πŸ’€
  • result β€” The command completion result from CQE dword0. it's a __u32 *, a pointer, so she writes the tea back into your variable πŸ“

πŸ”₯ RETURN πŸ”₯

so when you call her, one of two things happens:

  • if a response came back, she returns the nvme command status (peep enum nvme_status_field for the whole menu of what those could be) βœ…
  • otherwise, she returns -1 and sets errno. yeah. errno. as is tradition 😭
ngl bestie, always check the return value. -1 plus errno is her way of saying "that did NOT slay" πŸ’€

that's the whole page, bestie, you ate πŸ’…βœ¨πŸ¦‹
