aac_comm_init(9)

💅 aac_comm_init(9) — like, the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

okay so picture this: it's a (9) kernel API page, and today's main character is aac_comm_init. yes we're doing kernel-level init today, put your hair up 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

aac_comm_init — literally just here to Initialise FSA data structures, that's the whole vibe 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int aac_comm_init (struct aac_dev * dev );

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dev — the Adapter we're initialising. that's it, that's the one argument, she's low maintenance 💅

---

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

okay so what this does: it Initializes the data structures that are required for the FSA communication interface to actually operate. no data structures, no interface, no vibes. simple as that ✨

and then it tells you how it went:

• 1 — we were able to init the communication interface. slay, we ate, everything's fine 👑
• 0 — there were errors initing. 😭 and bestie, listen to me: this is a fatal error. not a "haha oops" error, not a "try again later" error. fatal. periodt. 💀

so like… if you get a 0 back, do not just shrug and keep going. that's the whole warning. fatal. fr fr 🚨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/aacraid/comminit.c — go read the source, iykyk 🫶
• aac_send_shutdown(9) — the other one you'll probably be looking at next 💫

and that's the page!! mwah 🍓

signing off from ./drivers/scsi/aacraid, dated October 2026 — xoxo, the Kernel API Manual, but make it cute 🎀✨💜
