lpfc_bsg_send_mgmt_cmd(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the lpfc_bsg_send_mgmt_cmd(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — it's giving short, purposeful, and honestly kind of iconic ✨. This function is here to send a CT command from a bsg request 💅. That's the whole name vibe, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lpfc_bsg_send_mgmt_cmd (struct bsg_job *job );

yep, that's the signature, spaces and all 🫶. The return type is int, bestie — that's literally what the page shows, periodt.

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• job — the fc_bsg_job to handle. The synopsis spells it as struct bsg_job *job, and this argument line calls it a fc_bsg_job to handle — both deets are right here, bestie 💖.
