_base_allocate_reply_pool(9)

💅 _base_allocate_reply_pool(9) — Kernel API Manual, but make it cute 💅

Okay so bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for _base_allocate_reply_pool(9), and it is exactly what it says on the tin: allocating DMA'able memory for the reply pool. No cap, that's the whole main-character job. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

_base_allocate_reply_pool — allocating DMA'able memory for the reply pool. That's it, that's the vibe. 💖

🛠️ SYNOPSIS 🛠️

The signature is literally giving:

int _base_allocate_reply_pool (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , u32 sz );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• ioc — the adapter object, aka the little main character this whole thing hangs around. 🫶
• sz — the DMA Pool size. Yes, that sz. Keep it cute and keep it exact. 🎀

💖 RETURN 💖

Returns 0 for success and non-zero for failure. That's the vibe check: 0 slays, non-zero is a no. 😭✨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
