libnvme(2)

✨ NAME ✨

ok so this is libnvme(2), the API manual bestie 💖 — and today's main character is enum nvmf_addr_family, aka the Address Family codes that go in the ADRFAM field of a Discovery Log Page entry. yes that's the whole vibe. she's a small enum but she's important.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

enum nvmf_addr_family {
    NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_PCI ,
    NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_IP4 ,
    NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_IP6 ,
    NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_IB ,
    NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_FC ,
    NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_LOOP

};

like, look at her. six little constants just vibing in a curly brace jail 🎀

🦋 Constants 🦋

ok so here's the lineup, one by one, no skips, we do not leave the group chat on read:

• NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_PCI — it's PCIe, babe. that's the whole thing. very demure, very PCIe 💅
• NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_IP4 — this one's AF_INET, i.e. the IPv4 address family. the classic. the OG. the one your router still believes in 🫶
• NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_IP6 — and this is AF_INET6, the IPv6 address family. longer addresses, bigger slay, still going strong ✨
• NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_IB — AF_IB, the InfiniBand address family. yes the fancy fabric one. she's giving data-center main character energy fr fr 🔥
• NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_FC — the Fibre Channel address family. yes it's spelled Fibre. no we will not be fixing it. iconic behavior 👑
• NVMF_ADDR_FAMILY_LOOP — Intra-host Transport (aka loopback), and heads up bestie, this one is reserved for host usage — so it's not for just anyone to go grabbing, iykyk 🙈

no cap: that's literally all six, nothing hidden, nothing cut, we kept every single one 💀
