fcoe_vport_create(9)
π NAME π
fcoe_vport_create β bestie, this is the one that spins up an fc_host/scsi_host for a vport π
So real quick, this page is from the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the kernel-functions girlies), and it's literally all about making a fresh host for a vport. Periodt.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int fcoe_vport_create (struct fc_vport *vport , bool disabled );
That's the whole vibe check right there π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
vportβ thefc_vportobject you're building a brand-newfc_hostfor π«Άdisabledβ should the newfc_hoststart out in a disabled state by default? like, born asleep, no cap π΄
πΈ RETURN πΈ
0 for success β¨ that's it, that's the whole list, we love a one-liner
ngl if you were hoping for a big dramatic list of error codes, this page is not giving that π 0 means success and that's all it says.
