📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 lpfc_nvmet_ls_req_cmp — a lil' guide from ur fav kernel bestie

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and honestly? it's giving "tiny function, big responsibilities" energy ✨ buckle up bestie, we're going into the lpfc driver 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

lpfc_nvmet_ls_req_cmp — the completion handler for a nvme ls request 💖

like, when an NVME LS request wraps up, this is the girl who handles the paperwork. main character energy fr.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void lpfc_nvmet_ls_req_cmp (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct lpfc_iocbq
*cmdwqe , struct lpfc_iocbq *rspwqe );

that's it. three pointers, returns void, no drama. lowkey iconic 😌

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • phba — pointer to the HBA context object. the whole vibe of the host bus adapter lives in here 🫶
  • cmdwqe — pointer to the driver command WQE object. this is the "what we asked for" side of things 💅
  • rspwqe — pointer to the driver response WQE object. and this is the "what we got back" side 🌸

three WQEs walk into a bar... no cap, that's the whole function signature 🍓

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so like — this function is the completion handler for NVME LS requests. periodt.

what does she actually do?? she updates any states and statistics 📊 (yes, she's tracking the numbers, she's organized like that), and then she calls the generic completion handler to finish completion of the request 🎀

that's the whole flow bestie:

  1. states + stats get updated ✅
  2. generic completion handler gets called to finish the request ✅
  3. done, slay 💅

no hidden steps, no secret sauce, the manpage is not holding out on us 🙈

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

the kernel file is right here, go read it iykyk:

Kernel file ./drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_nvmet.c

and the whole friend group 💜 — these functions are all linked and they all ate:

bestie reminder: every single one of those is a real function name, copied exactly. don't @ me, don't typo them, they're load-bearing 🫶
