💅 NCR5380_print — a Kernel API Manual moment (section 9, bestie)

okay so real talk, this is NCR5380_print from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's literally the "just show me what the bus is doing" function. tiny page, iconic energy, let's go ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

NCR5380_print — print scsi bus signals 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void NCR5380_print (struct Scsi_Host *instance );

no cap, that's the whole signature. she's simple, she's direct, she slays 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• instance — the adapter state you wanna dump. that's it. that's the whole vibe check 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so basically it prints the SCSI bus signals, and the reason you'd ever call it is debugging purposes — it's giving "let me see what's actually happening on this bus rn" 😭🔍

lowkey a diagnostic main-character moment: it prints, it doesn't fix anything. read the signals, bestie, and go from there 💅
