πŸ’… i40e_aq_rc_to_posix(9) πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” section 9, the deep-lore corner where we talk about kernel functions instead of, like, user commands. today's main character is i40e_aq_rc_to_posix, and her whole job is literally translating drama. πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

i40e_aq_rc_to_posix β€” convert errors to user-land codes πŸ¦‹

like, she takes the messy firmware/handler error language and turns it into something the user-land side can actually understand. a translator, an icon, a diplomat. no cap.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int i40e_aq_rc_to_posix (int aq_ret , int aq_rc );

that's it, that's the whole vibe. two ints in, one int out. πŸ’–


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • aq_ret β€” the AdminQ handler error code. plot twist: this one can override aq_rc. so she's not just a passenger, she gets a say. πŸ‘‘
  • aq_rc β€” the AdminQ firmware error code, aka the one that actually gets converted. the raw material, the firmware feelings, the thing we're translating. πŸ’…

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
