💅 NCR5380_print_phase(9) 💅

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — yes, that Kernel API Manual, the one your crush has never heard of — and today's main character is NCR5380_print_phase. buckle up bestie, it's a short one but it EATS ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

NCR5380_print_phase — show SCSI phase 💫

like, literally, it shows you the SCSI phase. that's the whole vibe. no cap.

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void NCR5380_print_phase (struct Scsi_Host *instance );

that's it. that's the entire function signature. it returns void so don't come for me asking "what does it give back" — it gives back nothing, it's giving generous queen who just wants to show you the phase 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• instance — the adapter to dump 💅 yeah we're dumping the adapter. not a metaphor, we're printing its business for debugging. it's fine, it consented (it did not).

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Print the current SCSI phase for debugging purposes.

and that's the WHOLE description, bestie 😭 it's a tiny little debug printer. you point it at a struct Scsi_Host *instance and it prints the current SCSI phase. purely for debugging. not for production glamour, not for your resume, just for debugging. periodt.

ngl the source of truth here is the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/NCR5380.c — that's where the actual code lives, so if you want the lore, go read it there 🔥
