🎀 _base_set_an...t_msix_index(9)

okay bestie, so this little cutie lives in the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — yes the whole title is literally truncated with ... in the middle, that's not me being lazy, that's just how it's printed 💅. It's a kernel-internal thing (a 9 page), so no scrolling through shell flags here, we're deep in driver land.

✨ NAME ✨

_base_set_and_get_msix_index — bestie, it grabs the msix index and assigns it to the msix_io variable of the scsi tracker. That's the whole gig. Iconic, lowkey modest, does exactly one thing 🫶

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u8 _base_set_and_get_msix_index (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , u16 smid
);

Yes the closing paren is on its own line, no I will not be fixing it, that's just the vibe of the original and we respect it 🙈

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ioc — the per adapter object, aka the whole adapter's ~situation~ 🎀
  • smid — the system request message index. not to be confused with any other kind of mid, this one is the system request message one, no cap ✨

💜 RETURN 💜

it returns the msix index. that's it. that's the tea 🍓

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

okay so first up, the kernel file this bad boy actually lives in:

  • ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c

and now, the full friend group (yes, every single one, I'm not cutting anybody, that would be rude):

no cap, that is the entire list, iykyk 😭💀 every single one is in the 9 section too, matching set energy 🌈

and that's the page!! 🎀✨ this cutie comes to you from ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas and it's dated October 2026 — go off, future manpage 💖👑
