dmmp_context_timeout_set โ€” bestie, it sets the IPC timeout ๐Ÿ’…


๐ŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS ๐ŸŽ€

void dmmp_context_timeout_set (struct dmmp_context *ctx, unsigned int tmo);

๐Ÿซถ ARGUMENTS ๐Ÿซถ

  • ctx โ€” this is a Pointer of 'struct dmmp_context'. Okay so listen ๐Ÿ‘€ if this pointer is NULL, your program will be terminated by assert. Like, gone. Not a vibe. Not a drill. Check your pointer bestie ๐Ÿ˜ญ
  • tmo โ€” the Timeout in milliseconds (and yes, 1 seconds equal 1000 milliseconds, the math is mathing ๐Ÿงฎ). Setting it to 0 means infinite, and the function only return when error or pass. Lowkey main character energy โ€” it just waits forever until something happens ๐ŸŒธ

๐Ÿ’– DESCRIPTION ๐Ÿ’–

So by default, the IPC to the multipathd daemon will timeout after 60 seconds. That's the baseline, the default, the factory setting, no cap โฐโœจ


๐ŸŒˆ RETURN ๐ŸŒˆ

void

It returns nothing. It's giving "I don't owe you an explanation" ๐Ÿ’€


okay that's the whole thing, short and slay, literally iconic ๐Ÿฆ‹

This one came out of the Device Mapper Multipath API - libdmmp Manual, page name dmmp_...t_set(3), and it's stamped June 2025 with dmmp_context_timeout_set as its whole personality. mwah, periodt ๐Ÿ’…๐Ÿ’–
