✨ fcoe_flogi_resp — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🦋

okay so bestie, welcome to the fcoe_flogi_resp(9) page, fresh out of the Kernel API Manual. bestie, this is literally the handler for FCoE-specific FLOGI and FDISC responses, and it's giving "small function, big responsibilities" energy. come sit with me, we're gonna go through it 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

fcoe_flogi_resp — the FCoE specific FLOGI and FDISC response handler. yes, that's her job title, and she eats every time 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void fcoe_flogi_resp (struct fc_seq *seq , struct fc_frame *fp , void
*arg );

that's the whole signature, no cap — three args, void return, and she's out here doing MAC address management. iconic 🎀

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • seq — the active sequence in the FLOGI or FDISC exchange. she's the one keeping the convo going, fr fr.
  • fp — the response frame, or, plot twist 😭, an error encoded in a pointer (hello, timeout). so if it's not a real frame, don't come for her.
  • arg — pointer to the fcoe_ctlr structure. that's the whole context, the main character energy of the call 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea: this function handles the MAC address management for FCoE first, then passes control on to the libfc FLOGI response handler. so she does her little MAC-address moment, and then hands the mic over — literally a relay race, and she is NOT dropping the baton 🏃‍♀️💨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay these are all her besties in the Kernel file ./drivers/scsi/fcoe/fcoe.c — and there are SO many, so buckle up, bestie:

look at that list. that's the whole friend group, and they all live in ./drivers/scsi/fcoe. iykyk 💀

and that's the page, bestie 🫶 this little gem comes to you from ./drivers/scsi/fcoe, dated October 2026, in the Kernel API Manual — fcoe_flogi_resp(9), periodt 💅💖
