πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 NAME 🌸

okay bestie, this is the lpfc_fabric_abort_vport(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's giving driver-cleanup realness πŸ’–

lpfc_fabric_abort_vport β€” abort a vport's iocbs from driver fabric iocb list 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void lpfc_fabric_abort_vport (struct lpfc_vport *vport );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • vport β€” pointer to a virtual N_Port data structure. that's it, that's the argument: one pointer to a virtual N_Port data structure, no cap πŸ’…

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

okay so picture the driver's internal fabric IOCB list: it's the list holding fabric IOCBs that are supposed to be issued to the ELS IOCB ring. this routine aborts every IOCB associated with a vport out of that list.

the way it works is genuinely iconic: it walks the fabric IOCB list, removes each IOCB associated with the vport off the list, sets the status field to IOSTAT_LOCAL_REJECT, and then invokes the callback function associated with that IOCB. literal cleanup main character energy ✨
