💅 fc_seq_assign(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for fc_seq_assign(9) — this is the one about assigning an exchange and sequence for an incoming request. iykyk ✨

🦋 NAME 🦋

fc_seq_assign — assign exchange and sequence for incoming request

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct fc_seq * fc_seq_assign (struct fc_lport *lport , struct fc_frame
       *fp );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• lport — the local port that received the request 🫶
• fp — the request frame 💌

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

when this succeeds ✨, the sequence pointer gets returned — and it’s also chilling in fr_seq(fp). a reference will be held on the exchange/sequence for the caller, and bestie, that caller must call fc_seq_release. no cap. 💅
