_transport_...e_identifier(9)

🦋 _transport_...e_identifier(9) 🦋

okay so real talk, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey one of those tiny helper functions that does exactly one thing and does it slay. it's giving "small but mighty" energy ngl 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

_transport_get_enclosure_identifier — (yes bestie, the description on this one is literally empty, that's not me being lazy, that's just the page 🙈)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int _transport_get_enclosure_identifier (struct sas_rphy *rphy , u64
*identifier );

like, it returns an int, it takes a struct sas_rphy *rphy and a u64 *identifier, and that's the whole vibe check 💖

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• rphy — the sas phy object 🧚 that's it, that's the whole description
• identifier — ? ... yes literally just a question mark 😭 the docs said "idk" and honestly? iconic. the source material gives us nothing more, so I'm not gonna invent anything. no cap, that's all we get 💀

---

🫶 DESCRIPTION 🫶

Obtain the enclosure logical id for an expander. that's the entire description, bestie — short, sweet, and straight to the point ✨🔍

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

0 for success, non-zero for failure. so like, zero = we ate 👑, anything else = something went sideways 💀
