okay so bestie, welcome to the bnx2i_update_iscsi_conn(9) page π this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's short, sweet, and lowkey mysterious. buckle up π
πΈ NAME πΈ
bnx2i_update_iscsi_conn β post iSCSI logout request WQE to hardware
like... that's what it says. that's the whole name section. no notes π«Ά
β SYNOPSIS β
void bnx2i_update_iscsi_conn (struct iscsi_conn *conn );
returns void, takes exactly one arg. she's simple, she's clean, she's iconic π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
connβ the iscsi connection that needs its iscsi parameter update. that's her. that's the one being updated π
π DESCRIPTION π
so what does she actually do? she sends down an iSCSI Conn Update request to move the iSCSI conn to FFP π₯
that's it. that's the description. short king behavior fr fr β¨
ngl the NAME line says "post iSCSI logout request WQE to hardware" and the DESCRIPTION says "move iSCSI conn to FFP" β yeah babe, that's genuinely what's written here π we don't editorialize, we just report π«Ά
