ibmvscsis_poll_cmd_q(9)

💅 ibmvscsis_poll_cmd_q — poll command queue ✨

Okay so bestie, this one lives in the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the kernel-functions section, iykyk) and it's lowkey a little workhorse. Let's get into it 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

ibmvscsis_poll_cmd_q — Poll Command Queue. That's it, that's the whole vibe 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void ibmvscsis_poll_cmd_q (struct scsi_info *vscsi );

No return value, no drama — it's giving void main character energy 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• vscsi — Pointer to our adapter structure. Yes, ours. It's the adapter, and you're handing over a pointer to it 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So here's the deal: this function is what gets called to handle command elements that may have arrived while interrupts were disabled 😭 Like, the doorbell got unplugged, packages piled up on the porch, and now we gotta go through them. That's the whole job.

⚠️ EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT: intr_lock must be held. Not optional, not "eh, probably fine" — held. No cap. 🔒

Mwah 💋 this page came from the ./drivers/scsi/ibmvscsi_tgt corner of the kernel, dated October 2026, and the manual it's filed under is ibmvscsis_poll_cmd_q(9). Go poll that queue, bestie — you got this 🫶💜
