okay so bestie, welcome to the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual 💖 this is lsm_target_port_physical_address_get(3) and it's literally just here to hand you the physical address of a target port. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🎀

NAME

lsm_target_port_physical_address_get — retrieve the physical address for the target_port 🦋

---

SYNOPSIS

const char * lsm_target_port_physical_address_get (lsm_target_port
*tp);

---

ARGUMENTS

---

VERSION

1.0 ⭐

---

DESCRIPTION

so you call this and it retrieves the physical address for the target_port. simple. iconic. 💅

the physical address is a lower case string which is used by the physical layer, like FC-0 and MAC. and here's the breakdown by transport, because details matter bestie:

• FC/FCoE:
  • WWPN (split with : every two digits)
• iSCSI:
  • MAC address (split with : every two digits)

---

NOTE

🚨 the address returned is valid until lsm_target_port gets freed. if you need it to live longer than that, copy the return value. and do NOT free the returned string. i'm so serious. do not free it. 🙈

---

RETURN

string. it's NULL if the argument 'tp' is NULL, or if it's not a valid lsm_target_port pointer. 😭

okay that's the whole page, you ate it, periodt 👑

big love to the Libstoragemgmt C API Manual for this one, dated February 2026 🌸 and yes the footer goes a lil something like lsm_target_port_physical_address_lsm_targe...dress_get(3) because the page name got a whole dramatic makeover in the header, but that's the manual name folded in right up top, iykyk 💜 take care of your strings and stay slay ✨🧚
