🦋 iscsi_eh_recover_target(9) — the Kernel API Manual page you didn't know you needed

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is iscsi_eh_recover_target(9). she's an error-handler girlie and honestly she's kind of everything 💅

---

✨ NAME ✨

iscsi_eh_recover_target — literally resets a target and, if she has to, the whole session too 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int iscsi_eh_recover_target (struct scsi_cmnd *sc );

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• sc — the scsi command, bestie. that's it, that's the argument 🫶

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so here's the vibe check: this function attempts to send a warm target reset. that's the first move, the opening act, the polite ask 🙈

but if that fails? oh she escalates. no cap. she goes straight to ERL0 session recovery — like, if the gentle approach doesn't land, we're doing the whole session rebuild. iconic behaviour, honestly. periodt 💀

okay that's the whole page, you ate it, i'm obsessed with you 💜 this came from ./drivers/scsi and it's dated October 2026 — so like, future girlie energy, and then it just loops right back to the title iscsi_eh_recover_target(9) because of course it does 🍓✨
