drbd_wait_misc(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay so this is drbd_wait_misc(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and its whole thing is literally: wait for a request to make progress. Bestie, that's the vibe. 💅✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

Here's the signature, copy-paste exact, no cap:

int drbd_wait_misc (struct drbd_device *device , struct drbd_interval *i
       );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• device — the device associated with the request. That's it, that's the whole note. 🫶
• i — the struct drbd_interval embedded in struct drbd_request or struct drbd_peer_request. Like, it lives inside one of those two, iykyk. 🦋
