πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– __lpfc_nvme_ls_req_cmp β€” kernel API manual, but make it make sense πŸ’–

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and it's all about __lpfc_nvme_ls_req_cmp ✨ lowkey a mouthful, but it's literally just a completion handler and honestly? she ate.


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

__lpfc_nvme_ls_req_cmp β€” the generic completion handler for a NVME LS request. that's it, that's the vibe πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void __lpfc_nvme_ls_req_cmp (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct lpfc_vport
*vport , struct lpfc_iocbq *cmdwqe , struct lpfc_wcqe_complete *wcqe );

like, yes, that's a whole lot of struct pointers. breathe. we'll get through it together 🫢


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • phba β€” pointer to the HBA context object. the main character of the storage world, honestly πŸ‘‘
  • vport β€” the local port that issued the LS. she's the one who started it, so she's the one showing up πŸ’β€β™€οΈ
  • cmdwqe β€” pointer to the driver command WQE object. this is the request side of things ✨
  • wcqe β€” pointer to the driver response CQE object. and this is the reply, iykyk πŸ¦‹

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

so what does she do? this function is the generic completion handler for NVME LS requests β€” meaning when an LS request finishes, she's the one wrapping it up. the whole closing-credits moment 🎬

the way that she works, in order, no cap:

  1. updates any states and statistics πŸ“Š
  2. calls the transport ls_req done routine πŸ“ž
  3. tears down the command and buffers used for the LS request 🧹✨

clean, efficient, iconic. periodt.
