aac_get_containers(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ aac_get_containers β€” like, the container roster function πŸ’…

okay so real talk, bestie: this is aac_get_containers from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, kernel API, we're fancy now πŸŽ€). Buckle up, it's a short one but it's iconic.


🌸 NAME 🌸

aac_get_containers β€” list containers. That's it. That's the whole vibe. ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int aac_get_containers (struct aac_dev *dev );

no cap, that's the entire call. one arg, returns an int. simple queen behavior πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • dev β€” the aac driver data. yeah, that's the whole description the manpage gives us and honestly? we respect the brevity. it's the driver data struct pointer, hand it over and let the function cook 🫢

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

So what does it do? It makes a list of all containers on this controller. Periodt.

Like, picture the controller as the main character and the containers as the group chat members β€” this function is the "who's in the chat" check 🌈. It goes and rounds up every container chillin' on this controller and makes a list of them. that's the mission. that's the whole mission. πŸ’€

ngl the manpage keeps it short and mysterious here, so we're not gonna invent lore that isn't in the source. no extra side quests, bestie πŸ™ˆ

πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

If you're going down the rabbit hole (and you should), these are your next stops β€” kernel file ./drivers/scsi/aacraid/aachba.c is where the magic lives 🧚:
