✨ lpfc_els_rsp_prli_acc(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the lpfc_els_rsp_prli_acc(9) page from the Kernel API Manual — this one's all about firing off an Accept response to a PRLI, and honestly it's kind of a whole mood. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

lpfc_els_rsp_prli_acc — prepare and issue an acc response to a prli iocb cmd ✨

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int lpfc_els_rsp_prli_acc (struct lpfc_vport *vport , struct lpfc_iocbq
*oldiocb , struct lpfc_nodelist *ndlp );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • vport — pointer to a virtual N_Port data structure. the main character of the virtual port world, lowkey 💅
  • oldiocb — pointer to the original lpfc command iocb data structure. like, the og iocb, the blueprint, the source material 📜
  • ndlp — pointer to a node-list data structure. the node bestie in question 💫

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this routine prepares and issues an Accept (ACC) response to the Process Login (PRLI) ELS command. it's giving "just do the thing" energy — it simply prepares the payload of the IOCB and invokes the lpfc_sli_issue_iocb routine to send out the command. no cap, that's literally the whole job 🔥

note that the ndlp reference count will be incremented by 1 for holding the ndlp, and the reference to ndlp will be stored into the ndlp field of the IOCB for the completion callback function to the PRLI Accept response ELS IOCB command. so yeah, the refcount goes up, the reference gets stashed in the IOCB, and the callback knows what's up 💀✨

Return code vibes:

  • 0 — Successfully issued acc prli response ✅ slay
  • 1 — Failed to issue acc prli response 😭 it tried
