lpfc_nvme_handle_lsreq(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, welcome to lpfc_nvme_handle_lsreq(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this is the kernel routine that does Process an unsolicited NVME LS request 💅. The name is literally giving exactly what it does, and we respect that main-character energy.

📞 SYNOPSIS 📞

int lpfc_nvme_handle_lsreq (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct
lpfc_async_xchg_ctx *axchg );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • phba — pointer to lpfc hba data structure. It’s giving “here’s the HBA context, bestie” 🫶.
  • axchg — pointer to exchange context for the NVME LS request. This is the request’s little luggage, okay? 🧳

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So, this routine is used for processing an asynchronously received NVME LS request. Any remaining validation is done and the LS is then forwarded to the nvme-fc transport via nvme_fc_rcv_ls_req. Lowkey important, highkey iconic ✨.

The calling sequence should be:

nvme_fc_rcv_ls_req -> (processing) -> lpfc_nvme_xmt_ls_rsp/cmp -> req->done

__lpfc_nvme_xmt_ls_rsp_cmp should free the allocated axchg. That part is not optional, bestie — it’s the cleanup vibe check 🫧.

Return vibes, no cap:

  • Returns 0 if LS was handled and delivered to the transport. Slay, delivered ✅.
  • Returns 1 if LS failed to be handled and should be dropped. Not the moment, but we move 💀.
