✨ beiscsi_find_mem_req ✨

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual bestie, and it's about a function called beiscsi_find_mem_req β€” say that five times fast, i literally can't πŸ’€. It's a kernel-API function, so it lives in that driver-world where memory gets counted before anything fun happens. No cap, it's short and sweet, so let's get into it 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

beiscsi_find_mem_req β€” find mem needed. That's it, that's the whole vibe: it figures out the memory that's needed ✨


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

void beiscsi_find_mem_req (struct beiscsi_hba *phba );

literally returns void, so it hands nothing back β€” it just does The Thing πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • phba β€” ptr to HBA struct. yep, a pointer to the HBA struct, that's the whole entrance requirement πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– SEE ALSO πŸ’–

so the kernel file it lives in is ./drivers/scsi/be2iscsi/be_main.c, and here's the whole friend group it runs with β€” all of them are section-9 (kernel API) pages, iykyk:


bestie this page is tiny β€” no options, no env vars, no exit statuses, no bug notes, no warnings. just the one function, the one arg, and the crew of cross-references. don't go looking for more, it's not there πŸ™ˆ

and that's the whole page, periodt πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ this cutie came from ./drivers/scsi/be2iscsi, dated October 2026, and the manual itself is the Kernel API Manual. mwah, go read the source, ily πŸ’œπŸŽ€
