💅 ipr_log_path_elem (9) — Kernel API Manual 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is ipr_log_path_elem — yes it's a (9) page, yes that means kernel-internal, no you can't call it from your little userland script, sorry bestie 😭 This one's short and sweet (like, actually short — don't get used to it) and it's literally just here to log a fabric path element. iconic lowkey.

✨ NAME ✨

ipr_log_path_elem — log a fabric path element. that's it. that's the whole job. 🦋

🫶 SYNOPSIS 🫶

void ipr_log_path_elem (struct ipr_hostrcb *hostrcb , struct
ipr_hostrcb_config_element *cfg );

it returns void, so like… nothing comes back. you're not getting a little int to check. it's giving "I did the thing, no notes" 💅

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • hostrcb — the hostrcb struct, bestie. that's the hostrcb struct you're passing in 🫶
  • cfg — the fabric path element struct. this is the actual fabric path element we're logging ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what does it do? it logs a fabric path element. periodt. 👑

and the return value? none. not "0", not "NULL", not "you'll figure it out" — literally none, because the function's void, bestie. no errors to catch, no status codes to vibe-check, nothing. just go in, log it, walk away like the main character you are 🔥

ngl this is one of those pages where the manpage is shorter than the function signature, and honestly? respect. no filler, no yap, just vibes 🌈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay so this is where it gets real — the SEE ALSO section on this page is genuinely enormous, like the entire ipr.c extended cinematic universe showed up to the group chat 💀 and no I'm not skipping any of them, bestie, every single one is getting its moment:

  • kernel file ./drivers/scsi/ipr.c 🎀 (the source file, iykyk)

and now, the whole crew, in the order they appear:

like… that's the whole roster 💀 genuinely obsessed with how this tiny two-argument logging function links to the entire driver. main character energy by association, fr fr 🧚

okay that's the page bestie, you're done, go log your fabric path elements 🦋💜 this little love letter lives in ./drivers/scsi, dated October 2026, and it answers to the name ipr_log_path_elem(9) — slay, bye ✨🎀
