okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this lil page is all about ata_scsiop_read_cap — and yes we're reading it together, grab a snack 🍓

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

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• dev — the target device, like the actual ATA device we're talking to 💖
• cmd — the SCSI command of interest, aka the one we care about rn 👀
• rbuf — the response buffer, and this is literally where the simulated SCSI cmd output gets sent 🫶
