✨ NAME ✨

struct nvme_virtual_mgmt_args β€” okay so this is literally the arguments struct for the NVMe Virtualization resource management command. that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct nvme_virtual_mgmt_args {
    __u32 *result;
    int args_size;
    int fd;
    __u32 timeout;
    enum nvme_virt_mgmt_act act;
    enum nvme_virt_mgmt_rt rt;
    __u16 cntlid;
    __u16 nr;
};

eight members, one struct, zero notes. the way that C just does that 🧚


πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

bestie, here's the whole roster, every single field, no skips, no "etc." πŸ™ˆ

  • result β€” if everything goes off without a hitch, this right here is the CQE dword0. we love a successful return πŸ’…
  • args_size β€” the size of struct nvme_virtual_mgmt_args. yes, the struct has to tell you how big it is. self-awareness, we stan. πŸ‘‘
  • fd β€” file descriptor of the nvme device. your lil portal to the hardware, fr fr 🫢
  • timeout β€” the timeout, in ms. milliseconds, bestie, not seconds β€” do not play with that number 😭
  • act β€” the virtual resource action you wanna take, see enum nvme_virt_mgmt_act
  • rt β€” the resource type you're modifying, see enum nvme_virt_mgmt_rt
  • cntlid β€” controller id for which resources are bing modified (and yes, the og manpage says "bing" β€” not me fixing it, not me judging it, we simply respect the source material 🌸)
  • nr β€” number of resources being allocated or assigned. how many? that many. πŸ”₯

quick vibe check: that's genuinely the entire page. no hidden flags, no extra env vars, no sneaky return values lurking in the margins. what you see is what you get, periodt. πŸ’€

okay and before you close the tab β€” this whole thing is the libnvme(9) API manual, for the struct nvme_virtual_mgmt_args page specifically, and it's stamped August 2026. go forth and virtualize those resources responsibly, bestie πŸŽ€βœ¨πŸ¦‹πŸ’œ
