lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox_cmpl(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox_cmpl 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox_cmpl — yes that's a mouthful, no we're not abbreviating it, it's iconic exactly as it is 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox_cmpl — literally the mbox completion handler for lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox, that's the whole vibe 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox_cmpl (struct lpfc_hba *phba , LPFC_MBOXQ_t
*pmboxq );

that's it. that's the signature. she takes two pointers and returns nothing, and honestly? slay 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • phba — pointer to the HBA context object. your main character struct, the whole context, the passport 🛂
  • pmboxq — pointer to the mailbox command. the actual mboxq in question, the little guy being completed ✨

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so here's the tea, bestie ☕ — this is the completion handler function for mailbox commands that get issued from the lpfc_bsg_issue_mbox function. like, when the mailbox thing finishes, this is who shows up to the party 🎉

it gets called by the mailbox event handler function with no lock held — no cap, that's a real detail, remember it. no lock. held. zero. 🙈

and what does she actually do? the way that she literally just wakes up the thread waiting on the wait queue pointed by dd_data of the mailbox. that's the job. wake the thread, hand it the good news, move on. lowkey humble of her tbh 👑
