fc_lun_reset(9)

✨ fc_lun_reset(9) ✨

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's giving "one tiny function, one very specific job." let's get into it 🎀

💅 NAME 💅

fc_lun_reset — send a LUN RESET command to a device and wait for the reply 🫶

like, the whole personality of this function is: it sends the reset, and then it sits there. patiently. waiting. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int fc_lun_reset (struct fc_lport *lport , struct fc_fcp_pkt *fsp ,
unsigned int id , unsigned int lun );

she takes four things and hands you back an int, periodt.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • lport — the local port you're sending the command on, iykyk ✨
  • fsp — the FCP packet that identifies the LUN that needs to be reset 💫 (this is the one doing the pointing, bestie)
  • id — the SCSI command ID 🔥
  • lun — the LUN ID that's getting reset 🌈
🫶 small reminder: fsp identifies which LUN to reset, and lun is the LUN ID itself — both live here, don't mix them up!

like, this function has so many friends. it's not even funny. main character energy in a whole file of functions 💀
