ioc_reset_count_show(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… ioc_reset_count_show(9) β€” the kernel manual, but make it make sense

Hey bestie, welcome to the ioc_reset_count_show(9) page from the Kernel API Manual. Yes that's a mouthful, no I will not be shortening it. This is the whole vibe: a little sysfs show function that tells you about the ioc reset count. Let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

ioc_reset_count_show β€” literally the ioc reset count. That's it. That's the name section. Iconic behavior honestly πŸŽ€


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

ssize_t ioc_reset_count_show (struct device *cdev , struct
       device_attribute *attr , char *buf );

That's the signature, copied exactly, do not come for me about the spacing πŸ’€


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • cdev β€” pointer to embedded class device. Your device-y entry point, main character energy.
  • attr β€” ? … yeah. That's what the page says. A whole question mark. The docs simply did not know and honestly? Respect for the honesty 😭
  • buf β€” the buffer returned. This is where the output goes, it's giving delivery slot πŸ“¦

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So what does this thing actually do? This is firmware queue depth limit.

Lowkey that is the entire description. It's also a sysfs 'read-only' shost attribute β€” so read it, love it, admire it, but you're not writing to it, bestie. No cap πŸ”₯


πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

Bestie the cross-reference list here is long long. Buckle up, we're listing every single one, fr fr. First up, the kernel file they live in: ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_ctl.c.

Like I said. Long long. But you have them all now, so go be curious πŸ’œ


That's the whole page bestie β€” no options list, no exit statuses, no environment variables, just the reset count and a truly enormous friend group ✨

And that's a wrap! πŸŽ€ This one came from ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas, dated October 2026 β€” go forth and read your sysfs attributes responsibly, mwah πŸ’‹
