iscsi_create_flashnode_conn(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💜 NAME 💜

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual (section 9, the cool one) — today's main character is iscsi_create_flashnode_conn, and what it does is literally right there in the name: Add flashnode conn entry in sysfs. that's it, that's the whole vibe. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

no cap, here's the exact signature, copy it like your life depends on it:

struct iscsi_bus_flash_conn * iscsi_create_flashnode_conn (struct
Scsi_Host *shost , struct iscsi_bus_flash_session *fnode_sess , struct
iscsi_transport *transport , int dd_size );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

four args, four little besties, let's meet them 🫶

  • shost — pointer to host data. yes queen, the host.
  • fnode_sess — pointer to the parent flashnode session entry. it's giving "parental supervision" energy fr.
  • transport — pointer to transport data. the whole plumbing situation.
  • dd_size — total size to allocate. how much room we're booking, total.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so what actually happens? it adds a sysfs entry for the flashnode connection attributes. that's the tea ☕ — one sysfs entry, flashnode connection attributes, done. iconic behavior honestly, no notes. 💅

🌸 RETURN 🌸

what comes back, you ask? 👑

  • pointer to allocated flashnode conn on success 🎉
  • NULL on failure 😭 (and yes, you should check it, bestie, don't be that person)

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the whole friend group, and also the source file itself — go read it, it ate:

lowkey reminder: fnode_sess is the parent flashnode session entry, so don't go handing it some random struct and act surprised. 🙈

okay that's the page!! it lives in ./drivers/scsi, it's dated October 2026, and it answers to the name iscsi_create_flashnode_conn(9) — go forth and slay your sysfs entries, bestie 💖🎀🧚
