_scsih_fw_event_requeue(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 _scsih_fw_event_requeue β€” requeue an event πŸ’…

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the star of the show is _scsih_fw_event_requeue(9). yes it's a kernel function, no you can't skip it, and yes it's lowkey iconic. it does exactly one thing and it does it with main character energy: it puts a firmware event back in the queue so it can be retried later. that's the whole vibe. πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void _scsih_fw_event_requeue (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , struct
fw_event_work *fw_event , unsigned long delay );

like, look at that signature. three args, zero drama, returns void. we love a function that knows what it is. 🫢


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • ioc β€” the per adapter object, aka the whole personality of the adapter you're working with πŸ’–
  • fw_event β€” the object describing the event. it's giving "receipts for what happened" ✨
  • delay β€” time in milliseconds to wait before retrying the event. patience is a virtue, bestie πŸ•°οΈ

πŸ”’ CONTEXT πŸ”’

heads up, no cap: this function will acquire ioc->fw_event_lock. so like, it grabs the lock. be aware. that's the vibe check. πŸ’…


🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Return nothing. that's it. that's the whole description. it returns literally nothing, and honestly? relatable. 🫠

and now, the moment you've all been waiting for: the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_scsih.c and its absolutely enormous friend group. every single one of these is invited to the party πŸŽ‰


that's the whole page, bestie, no crumbs left behind πŸ“ and before you go: this little masterpiece lives in ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas, and it's dated October 2026. go forth and requeue responsibly, ily πŸ’œπŸ§š
