💅 lpfc_cmpl_els_rsp(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're literally in the kernel docs together, hold my iced coffee 🧋

🌸 NAME 🌸

lpfc_cmpl_els_rsp — the completion callback function for els response iocb cmd. no cap, that's the whole name. she does exactly what it says on the tin ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void lpfc_cmpl_els_rsp (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct lpfc_iocbq
*cmdiocb , struct lpfc_iocbq *rspiocb );

like, she takes three pointers and returns nothing. void. she gives nothing back emotionally but she does her job 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • phba — pointer to the lpfc hba data structure. the hba in question. her home base 🏠
  • cmdiocb — pointer to the lpfc command iocb data structure. the command side of the situation.
  • rspiocb — pointer to the lpfc response iocb data structure. the response side. they're a duo, iykyk 🫶

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

okay so this routine is the completion callback function for the ELS Response IOCB command. main character energy fr.

Here's the vibe: in the normal case, this callback function just properly sets the nlp_flag bitmap in the ndlp data structure. that's it. that's the job. lowkey iconic for how chill it is 🌈

BUT — and this is the part where it gets spicy 🔥 — if the mbox command reference field in the command IOCB is not NULL, then the referred mailbox command will be send out, and then she invokes the lpfc_els_free_iocb routine to release the IOCB. so she sets the flag, possibly sends the mailbox command, and cleans up after herself. a queen who tidies up 💖
