πŸ’… beiscsi_ep_disconnect β€” Kernel API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so real talk, this one lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it's about the be2iscsi driver doing the sad but necessary thing: hanging up the phone on a TCP connection. short page, but we're gonna give it the full main-character treatment anyway πŸŽ€

πŸ’€ DESCRIPTION πŸ’€

Tears down the TCP connection.

yep. that's the description. that's the whole description. it does the thing, it tears down the TCP connection, and honestly? iconic behavior. no cap, sometimes the most powerful function in the file is the one that just tells the TCP connection to pack it up and go 😭πŸ”₯


πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

first up, the source file itself, if you wanna go read the actual code like a lil detective πŸ”:
