👑 fcoe_ctlr_vn_add — a kernel API girly pop 💅

okay so bestie, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual section (9), and the star of the show is fcoe_ctlr_vn_add. Buckle up 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

fcoe_ctlr_vn_add — add a VN2VN entry to the list, based on a claim reply 💖

like literally that's the whole vibe. it adds a VN2VN entry to the list, and it does it based on a claim reply. periodt.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void fcoe_ctlr_vn_add (struct fcoe_ctlr *fip , struct fcoe_rport *new );

no cap, that's character-for-character how it's written. spaces and all. we respect the source 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• fip — the FCoE controller. it's giving main character energy, honestly 👑
• new — a newly-parsed FCoE rport, serving as the template for the new rdata 🌱

---

💀 DESCRIPTION 💀

so here's the thing — this one gets called with ctlr_mutex held. that's it, that's the note. locking discipline is not a drill, bestie 🔒✨
