bnx2i_process_tcp_error(9)

💅 bnx2i_process_tcp_error — NAME ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual 🎀 — this one's about bnx2i_process_tcp_error, and its whole personality is processing error notifications on a given connection. that's it, that's the job. 💖

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void bnx2i_process_tcp_error (struct bnx2i_hba *hba , struct iscsi_kcqe
*tcp_err );

like, it takes your adapter and a tcp error kcqe, and it returns... nothing. void. no return value, no drama, just vibes and error handling ✨

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hba — adapter structure pointer 🫶. it's the HBA, she's the main character, she holds everything together.
• tcp_err — tcp error kcqe pointer 💀. yes, the error notification itself, hand-delivered, no cap.

---

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

ok so real talk: this function handles tcp level error notifications from FW 🔥. that's the entire flex. the firmware (FW, iykyk) comes through with a tcp-level oopsie and this bad boy is the one who catches it. she's giving "designated friend who handles the crisis call at 2am" energy, honestly 😭

no extra lore, no secret side quests — that's literally the description. periodt. 💅
