lpfc_cgn_params_val(9)

Bestie, welcome to lpfc_cgn_params_val(9) from the Kernel API Manual. This is the page where we validate FW congestion parameters, and it’s literally iconic. ✨

💖 NAME 💖

lpfc_cgn_params_val — Validate FW congestion parameters. That’s the assignment, periodt.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so the signature is giving:

void lpfc_cgn_params_val (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct lpfc_cgn_param
       *p_cfg_param );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

two besties walk into the function:

• phba — pointer to lpfc hba data structure.
• p_cfg_param — pointer to FW provided congestion parameters.

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

okay so this routine is the vibe check for congestion parameters. It validates the congestion parameters passed by the FW to the driver via an ACQE event. No cap, that’s the whole routine. 🫶

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the guest list is LONG, and I’m not dropping a single name, fr fr:
