💖 lpfc_nvmet_ctxbuf_post 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for lpfc_nvmet_ctxbuf_post(9). This is the little cleanup-and-repost situation for NVMET RQ DMA buffers, and it’s honestly giving “tidy queen” energy. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

lpfc_nvmet_ctxbuf_post — repost a NVMET RQ DMA buffer and clean up context. 🎀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void lpfc_nvmet_ctxbuf_post (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct lpfc_nvmet_ctxbuf *ctx_buf );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• phba — the HBA the buffer is associated with. 💖
• ctx_buf — the ctx buffer context. 🐚

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what it does: frees the given DMA buffer in the appropriate way — by reposting it to its associated RQ so it can be reused. That’s the whole glow-up. ✨

💀 NOTES 💀

• It takes phba->hbalock. 🔒
• It can be called with or without other locks held. iykyk 🫶

🌈 RETURN 🌈

None — literally nothing comes back, bestie. 💜
