*fp , unsigned int op , enum fc_rctl *r_ctl , enum fc_fh_type *fh_type
);

like yes she's a whole signature, breathe, we'll go through it together 🫢


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • lport β€” the local port. the main character of this little story πŸ‘‘
  • fc_id β€” the FC_ID of the non-destination rport, specifically for GPN_ID and similar inquiries. (non-destination!! don't get it twisted, bestie πŸ’€)
  • fp β€” the frame that's gonna contain the payload. it's the vessel, the container, the moment πŸ¦‹
  • op β€” the CT opcode. iconic little integer.
  • r_ctl β€” a pointer to the FC header R_CTL. pointer!! watch it.
  • fh_type β€” a pointer to the FC-4 type. also a pointer. two pointers. we love a matched set ✨
