iscsi_itt_to_task(9)
π iscsi_itt_to_task(9) β like, the kernel API manual bestie π
okay so this is the iscsi_itt_to_task(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's short but it's important, so pay attention π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
iscsi_itt_to_task β look up task by itt π«
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
struct iscsi_task * iscsi_itt_to_task (struct iscsi_conn *conn , itt_t
itt );
literally just hand it a conn and an itt and it hands you back a struct iscsi_task *, no cap β¨
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
connβ the iscsi connection π (yes, that one, the connection you're working with)ittβ the itt π (that's it, that's the whole description, the original manpage said "itt" and honestly? iconic. we respect it.)
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the vibe: this is your go-to lookup when you're dealing with mgmt tasks like login and nops π β that's the main character use case.
the other scenario where you'd reach for this: if the LDD's itt space does not include the session age. iykyk π₯
β οΈ okay big important thing bestie, do not skip this: the session back_lock must be held when you call this. like, non-negotiable. hold the lock, periodt π
