💅 int_initio_scsi_rst — SCSI reset occurred

okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual for int_initio_scsi_rst(9) ✨ this is the initio SCSI driver's little "oh no the bus got reset" handler, and honestly? she's doing her best 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

int_initio_scsi_rst — SCSI reset occurred 💀 like, the reset already happened, we're just here to clean up the mess

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int int_initio_scsi_rst (struct initio_host * host );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • host — the host that's out here seeing the reset 👀 this is your struct initio_host * and yes she saw everything

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so picture this: a SCSI bus reset has occurred. it's giving chaos, it's giving uninvited drama, and now it's our job to deal with it 💅

what we do is clean up any pending transfer the hardware is doing by DMA — like, whatever DMA situation was mid-character-development arc, we shut it down gracefully 🧚 and then we abort all active and disconnected commands. all of them. every single one. no survivors, periodt 🔥

and then? then we hand the rest off. the mid layer should sort the rest out for us 😌 we did our part, we're not doing the mid layer's homework, that's their main character energy now 👑

ngl this is a cleanup function, not a magic one — it aborts commands and stops the DMA, and the mid layer takes it from there 💖
