isci_remote_device_stop(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 isci_remote_device_stop(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🎀

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's about one tiny function that does a very specific little job. let's get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

isci_remote_device_stop — literally the internal call that stops the remote device. that's it, that's the whole vibe. no cap 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum sci_status isci_remote_device_stop (struct isci_host *ihost ,
struct isci_remote_device *idev );

like look at her. two args, one status return. iconic behavior honestly 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • ihost — this one specifies the isci host object. she's the host, she's holding it down 💖
  • idev — this one specifies the remote device. the device in question, the main character of this call 🦋

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the deal is: this function gets called internally to stop the remote device. that's the whole description, fr fr — it's not out here doing side quests.

and the return value? it's the status of the ihost request to stop. so you're getting a status back about how that stop request went down. periodt 💅

ngl there's not a ton of extra lore on this page — what you see is what you get. no hidden plot twists, no surprise defaults, nothing extra hiding in the walls 🙈

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the kernel file in question is ./drivers/scsi/isci/remote_device.c — that's where she lives 🏡

and here's the whole friend group, all in their (9) era:

like okay, the whole lifecycle is right there — construct, start, ready, not ready, gone, found, destruct, deconstruct. the full arc 😭💜

💌 cute sign-off time: this page comes from ./drivers/scsi/isci and it's dated October 2026. go off, kernel docs, we love a timestamped moment ⭐🌸

okay bye bestie, go stop that remote device responsibly 🧚‍♀️💖
