lpfc_send_fastpath_evt(9)

💅 NAME 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for lpfc_send_fastpath_evt(9) — the function that posts events generated from fast path. That's the name, that's the vibe, periodt. 👑

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void lpfc_send_fastpath_evt (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct lpfc_work_evt *evtp );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• phba — pointer to hba context object. Like, the hba context object pointer, right there. 🫶
• evtp — event data structure. The event data structure in question. ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the tea: lpfc_send_fastpath_evt is called from the worker thread when the interrupt context need to post an event. Then it posts the event to the fc transport netlink interface. That's it — no extra lore, no side quests. 🦋
