πŸ’… lpfc_scsi_api_table_setup(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual glow-up ✨

okay so bestie, buckle up, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this page is literally about wiring up a jump table of function pointers. no cap, it's giving "plumbing but make it fashion." πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

lpfc_scsi_api_table_setup β€” set up the scsi api function jump table, fr fr πŸ’«


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lpfc_scsi_api_table_setup (struct lpfc_hba *phba , uint8_t dev_grp );

like. that's the whole signature. two args, one int coming back atcha. 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • phba β€” the hba struct for which this call is being executed. yes, that hba struct. the main character of the whole operation πŸ‘‘
  • dev_grp β€” the HBA PCI-Device group number. it's a uint8_t, so pls be normal about it πŸ™ˆ

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so what this routine actually does: it sets up the SCSI interface API function jump table in the phba struct. that's it. that's the vibe check and it passed πŸ’…

jump table setup is iconic behavior, honestly. lowkey the whole point. πŸ”₯


🌈 RETURN 🌈

  • 0 β€” success, slay πŸ’«
  • -ENODEV β€” failure, and not the cute kind 😭
ngl, if you get back -ENODEV something is Not Right with your device situation. just a heads up bestie 🫢
