💅 ata_scsiop_inq_b9(9) 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for ata_scsiop_inq_b9(9) — yes, title and manual name are folded right here at the top, we're being efficient 💖. This is the lowkey iconic little simulator for INQUIRY VPD page B9, and we're gonna get you comfy with it. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

ata_scsiop_inq_b9 — simulate INQUIRY VPD page B9, the Concurrent Positioning Ranges page. slay.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

unsigned int ata_scsiop_inq_b9 (struct ata_device *dev , struct
scsi_cmnd *cmd , u8 *rbuf );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dev — target device. literally the target device we're looking at.
• cmd — SCSI command of interest. the one we care about.
• rbuf — response buffer, to which simulated SCSI cmd output is sent. that's where the simulated output lands 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so the function returns data for the VPD page B9h (Concurrent Positioning Ranges). that's the whole mission, bestie — it's giving "simulate the answer" energy ✨.
