__qla_copy_purex_to_buffer(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the __qla_copy_purex_to_buffer(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — this is the one where we extract the ELS payload from the Purex IOCB and save it to the buffer you provide. No cap, that's the whole name vibe. 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

like, here's the exact signature, don't @ me:

       int __qla_copy_purex_to_buffer (struct scsi_qla_host *vha , void **pkt ,
       struct rsp_que **rsp , u8 *buf , u32 buf_len );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

these are the five besties this function takes, fr fr:

• vha — host adapter pointer. she's the main character here 👑
• pkt — pointer Purex IOCB. yes, that's exactly the phrase, iykyk 🦋
• rsp — respond queue. lowkey important 💅
• buf — extracted ELS payload copy here. this is where the goods go 🎀
• buf_len — buffer length. keep it in check, bestie 📏
