🎀 NAME 🎀

okay bestie, meet ata_scsi_var_len_cdb_xlat — the SATL variable length CDB to Handler situation 💅 this page is from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally here to explain the translation vibe ✨

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

unsigned int ata_scsi_var_len_cdb_xlat (struct ata_queued_cmd *qc );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• qc — the Command to be translated 🫶 that's the whole argument, bestie.
