fc_lport_ms_resp(9)

💅 fc_lport_ms_resp 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for fc_lport_ms_resp — it’s giving “management server exchange response” energy and we’re gonna read it together, no cap. 🦋✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

fc_lport_ms_resp — Handle response to a management server exchange. that’s the whole assignment, and it ate. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bestie, here’s the signature in all its exact, character-for-character glory:

void fc_lport_ms_resp (struct fc_seq *sp , struct fc_frame *fp , void *lp_arg );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sp — current sequence in exchange. that’s the sequence happening right now in the exchange, bestie. keep the name exact. 💅
• fp — response frame. the frame that came back as the response. yep, that’s the vibe. 🦋
• lp_arg — Fibre Channel host port instance. that’s the host port bestie in question. 👑

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

okay so here’s the Locking Note, and we’re keeping it dramatic because locks are serious:

Locking Note: when this gets called, the lport lock is not held. but then it locks, calls an _enter_* function or fc_lport_error, and then unlocks the lport. yes, it does the lock dance itself. 🔐

that’s the whole note — no extra lore, bestie, just the lock behavior exactly as written. 🫶
