initio_state_2(9)

💖 initio_state_2(9) 💖

okay bestie, this one comes from the Kernel API Manual, and we're looking at initio_state_2(9) in all its SCSI state machine glory. ✨

✨ NAME ✨

initio_state_2 — SCSI state machine. That's the name, that's the vibe, and honestly it ate. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int initio_state_2 (struct initio_host * host );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• host — the InitIO host we are controlling. That's the whole argument list, and she's doing her thing. 🫶

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

The original description is short and a little mysterious — it literally says:

state after selection with attention state after selection with attention3

No cap, that's the whole description. We're not adding lore, guessing at behaviour, or "fixing" the wording; we're just holding it up like the iconic little cryptic note it is. 😭✨
