SCU_EVENT_MESSAGE(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… SCU_EVENT_MESSAGE(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ β€” this one's a tiny macro page from the SCSI/iSCI corner of the kernel, and it's honestly giving "short but iconic." let's get into it πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

SCU_EVENT_MESSAGE β€” no cap, the description field is literally empty in the source. the man page just says SCU_EVENT_MESSAGE and then nothing 😭 so we move. the macro itself is the main character here 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

SCU_EVENT_MESSAGE (type , code );

that's it. two args, one macro call, zero drama πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • type β€” the original literally says -- undescribed -- πŸ™ˆ so yeah, it's undocumented on this page. not me leaving a mystery on main πŸ•΅οΈβ€β™€οΈ
  • code β€” same situation bestie, -- undescribed -- πŸ’€ the page does not tell us more, and i'm not gonna make stuff up. iykyk.

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what does it do? this macro constructs β€” and, per the original wording, combines β€” an SCU event type and an SCU event specifier from the type and code values you hand it 🌈

like, you give it a type and a code, and it smooshes out the combined event-type-plus-specifier situation. that's the whole vibe. periodt πŸ’…
