lpfc_debugf...ripools_open(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

okay so welcome to the lpfc_debugf...ripools_open(9) page from the Kernel API Manual πŸ’… this is the entry for lpfc_debugfs_multixripools_open, aka the multixripool debugfs buffer opener, and she is lowkey iconic.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lpfc_debugfs_multixripools_open (struct inode *inode , struct file
*file );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • inode β€” the inode pointer that contains a hba pointer. She's the one holding the hba hookup, iykyk.
  • file β€” the file pointer to attach the log output. This is where the log output gets attached, periodt.

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

This routine is the entry point for the debugfs open file operation.

It gets the hba from the i_private field in inode, allocates the necessary buffer for the log, fills the buffer from the in-memory log for this hba, and then returns a pointer to that log in the private_data field in file. No cap, that's the whole flow ✨

🫢 RETURN 🫢

This function returns zero if successful. On error it will return a negative error value. So zero is the slay outcome; negative means something went sideways, bestie 😭
