πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void __lpfc_mbox_cmpl_put (struct lpfc_hba *phba , LPFC_MBOXQ_t *mbq );

no return value, no drama, just vibes and two arguments 🫢


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • phba β€” pointer to lpfc hba data structure. that's the hba, your main character 🫢
  • mbq β€” pointer to the driver internal queue element for mailbox command. the queue element in question, fr fr πŸ’œ

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does it actually do? this routine puts the completed mailbox command into the mailbox command complete list ✨

heads up though: this is the unlocked version of the routine β€” no cap, that's literally in the docs, so know that going in πŸ™ˆ

and why does that list even exist? because the mailbox complete list is what the driver worker thread uses to process mailbox complete callback functions outside the driver interrupt handler πŸ‘‘ which is a whole vibe β€” get that work out of the interrupt handler, we love to see it πŸ’…
