int_initio_resel(9)
π int_initio_resel(9) β like, the reselection one, from the Kernel API Manual
okay so real talk, this is int_initio_resel, straight out of the kernel API manual bestie, and it's genuinely one of the shorter ones so we can absolutely get through it together π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
int_initio_resel β reselection occurred. that's it. that's the whole name. slay π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int int_initio_resel (struct initio_host * host );
so it takes one thing and hands you back an int, iconic behaviour honestly β
π ARGUMENTS π
hostβ the InitIO host adapter. that's your whole argument list, one (1) single host adapter, we love a low-maintenance function signature π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
okay so picture this: a SCSI reselection event has been signalled π and the interrupt is, like, right now being processed. main character interrupt energy, fr fr.
your job here is to work out which command block needs attention π₯ and then continue processing that command. that's the whole vibe. figure out who's being summoned, and keep the command moving β¨ no cap.
π SEE ALSO π
also go look at the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/initio.c, and honestly the whole friend group is here so let's do roll call ππ:

like, the entire initio extended universe π and yes you do have to read all of them, i don't make the rules π§
lowkey a little reminder: this one's just the description above, no hidden plot twists, no extra flags, nothing sneaky π
and that's the page!! πΈ brought to you by the fine folks over at ./drivers/scsi, dated October 2026, under the title int_initio_resel(9) β mwah, bye bestie π
