iscsi_lookup_endpoint(9)

💅 iscsi_lookup_endpoint(9) — the Kernel API Manual moment

okay so bestie, welcome to iscsi_lookup_endpoint(9) — the little kernel manpage that lives in the Kernel API Manual section, and honestly? it's a short one but it's iconic in its own tiny way 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

iscsi_lookup_endpoint — get ep from handle 🦋

so like. you give it a handle, it gives you the ep. that's the whole vibe. ep = endpoint, iykyk 😌

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct iscsi_endpoint * iscsi_lookup_endpoint (u64 handle );

that's it. that's the whole call. no cap 💅

---

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• handle — endpoint handle. that's the thing you pass in, and it's the endpoint's handle, fr fr 🔥

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so you call iscsi_lookup_endpoint and you get your ep. but listen — the caller must do a iscsi_put_endpoint 🚨 like, this is not a "lol i'll clean it up later" situation. you look it up, you do your thing, you put it back with iscsi_put_endpoint. that's the deal. periodt 💅

not me reminding you again: caller must do a iscsi_put_endpoint. do not leave the ep hanging, bestie 😭
