lpfc_get_rec_conf23(9)

💅 lpfc_get_rec_conf23 — a kernel API manual (yes the whole manual name is in the title, we're doing this) ✨

okay so bestie, sit down, hydrate, because today we're reading a kernel API manual page and honestly? it's kinda iconic. it's called lpfc_get_rec_conf23, and no I will not be pronouncing that out loud. 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

lpfc_get_rec_conf23 — get a record type in config region data. that's it. that's the whole job. she's a finder. a little search gremlin. 🧚

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

uint8_t * lpfc_get_rec_conf23 (uint8_t *buff , uint32_t size , uint8_t
rec_type );

three args, one pointer back, no drama. copy it exactly, babes, the kernel does not accept vibes-based syntax. 💀

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• buff — the buffer holding config region 23 data. like, the actual data. the stuff. 🍓
• size — how big that data buffer is. you gotta tell her, she's not a mind reader.
• rec_type — the record type you want her to go hunt for. the target. the main character of this search. 👑

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so what she does is: she searches through config region data to find the beginning of the record specified by record_type. That's the whole personality.

if the record is found — she returns a pointer to that record. found it, slayed, periodt. ✨

if it's not found — she returns NULL. no record, no pointer, no notes. 😭

ngl the "return" vs "returns" grammar in the original is a whole mood but the meaning is locked in: found = pointer, not found = NULL. no in-between, no maybe, no "it's complicated". 💅

okay that's the page!! this little cutie comes from the source path ./drivers/scsi/lpfc and the version/date line says October 2026, header name lpfc_get_rec_conf23(9), so yeah — she's from the future, she's in ./drivers/scsi/lpfc, and she's gotta go. mwah. 💋👑
