lpfc_els_timeout_handler(9)

💖 lpfc_els_timeout_handler(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes, that's the manual name, and we're literally in it. This page is all about lpfc_els_timeout_handler(9), and it's giving "actual timeout-cleanup handler girlie" energy. Let's get into it. 🫶

🎀 NAME 🎀

lpfc_els_timeout_handler — process an els timeout event. That's the whole name, no cap. ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void lpfc_els_timeout_handler (struct lpfc_vport *vport );

💅 ARGUMENTS 💅

• vport — pointer to a virtual N_Port data structure. It's a pointer, it points at your virtual N_Port data, and that's the vibe. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So this routine is the actual handler function that processes an ELS timeout event. It walks the ELS ring to get and abort all the IOCBs — except the ABORT/CLOSE/FARP/FARPR/FDISC ones, noted — which are associated with the vport, by invoking the lpfc_sli_issue_abort_iotag routine. Periodt. 🔥
