πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… bnx2fc_eh_device_reset β€” the kernel API manual, but make it make sense πŸŽ€

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is bnx2fc_eh_device_reset(9). yes it's a mouthful, no we're not abbreviating it, it's iconic and it knows it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

bnx2fc_eh_device_reset β€” reset a single LUN πŸ’…

like, just one. one LUN. not the whole party. we're being specific.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int bnx2fc_eh_device_reset (struct scsi_cmnd *sc_cmd );

that's the whole vibe. it takes one thing and it returns an int. short, sweet, slays.


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • sc_cmd β€” a SCSI command 🫢 that's it, that's the argument. it's a struct scsi_cmnd *, and it is literally the SCSI command in question.

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so the way this works is: this function is set from the SCSI host template β€” iykyk β€” to send a task mgmt command to the target, and then it waits for the response. 😭

it sends the task management command, it waits for the response, and that's the whole entire arc. no cap. it's giving "polite but firm" energy fr fr β€” it doesn't just yeet the command and dip, it waits. main character behavior honestly πŸ‘‘


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

all of these are siblings and they all live in the same folder, it's a whole family situation 🌈


🧚 just a lil reminder bestie: this one resets a single LUN, so if you were looking for the whole-target energy, that's bnx2fc_eh_target_reset(9) β€” the name lowkey tells you everything ngl πŸ’–

okay that's the page!! πŸ’€ this whole thing came out of ./drivers/scsi/bnx2fc and it's dated October 2026, from the Kernel API Manual β€” so if you ever need to cite it, you've got the receipts πŸŽ€ bye bestie, go reset that LUN responsibly 🫢⭐
