✨ lsm_disk_location_get ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual 💖 this one's a lil function called lsm_disk_location_get(3) and it's literally just "where does this disk live" but make it C. short page, big vibes, zero skips. let's go 🦋

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

lsm_disk_location_get — retrieves the location for the disk. that's it. that's the whole job. she finds out where your disk is at, physically, and tells you. main character energy fr 🎀

---

🌈 SYNOPSIS 🌈

const char * lsm_disk_location_get (lsm_disk *d);

one function, one argument, one const char * coming back at you. chef's kiss 💅

---

🍓 ARGUMENTS 🍓

• d — the disk you want the location for. like, which disk are we asking about, bestie? this one. hand her over 🫶

---

👑 VERSION 👑

1.3 — this is the version. noted, logged, slay ✨

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

retrieve the disk location. you pass in a disk, she hands you back a string describing where that disk is. that's the whole plot, no subplots 🌟

---

🙈 NOTE 🙈

okay so this part actually matters, listen up:

the address that comes back is valid until lsm_disk gets freed. so if you need it to live longer than that, copy the return value yourself. and do not free the returned string — she's not yours, don't touch her, put it back 😭

no cap. that's a real footgun. respect the lifetime 🎀

---

⭐ CAPABILITY ⭐

LSM_CAP_DISK_LOCATION

that's the capability flag that has to be in play for this to work. iykyk 🔥

---

🦋 RETURN 🦋

a string. 💖

and it's NULL if:

• the argument 'd' is NULL, or
• 'd' isn't a valid lsm_disk pointer, or
• it's just not supported.

so like. check for NULL. always. no exceptions 🙈
