💅 fc_rport_recv_req(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for fc_rport_recv_req. yes it's a function, yes it's in the kernel, yes we're gonna understand it. sit down, hydrate, let's go ✨

✨ NAME ✨

fc_rport_recv_req — the handler for requests. that's it, that's the vibe. it handles requests 🫶

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void fc_rport_recv_req (struct fc_lport *lport , struct fc_frame *fp );

literally copy that exactly, ngl, don't get creative with the spacing 💀

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • lport — the local port that received the request. like, the one who picked up the phone 📞
  • fp — the request frame. the actual message itself, the main character 🎁

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does it do? it's the handler for requests. icon behaviour, honestly.

one lil note that matters: reference counting: does not modify kref. so if you were expecting this to touch the kref, it does not. not today, not ever. periodt 💅

heads up bestie — this is the whole description, no cap. don't go reading extra behaviour into it that isn't written here 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this list is long and honestly kind of iconic, so buckle up. it's all in the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/libfc/fc_rport.c, and here's every single friend in the family:

like… that's the whole group chat 😭 every single one of them, fr fr. go read them too, they're all 🔥
