lpfc_sli4_offline_eratt(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 NAME 💅

lpfc_sli4_offline_eratt — bestie, this one takes the lpfc offline when SLI4 hardware throws an error attention at us 😭

(also hello, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — welcome to the kernel function party 🎀)

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void lpfc_sli4_offline_eratt (struct lpfc_hba *phba );

like, that's it. one function, one argument, no return value, no drama 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • phba — pointer to the lpfc hba data structure. that's the whole vibe check, she just needs the pointer 🦋

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so picture this: something in the HBA hardware has gone wrong, and it's not Port Error 6 (that one's a different girl, she has her own handler 👑). when that happens, this routine gets called to bring a SLI4 HBA offline.

so the way that works: hardware error detected → not Port Error 6 → lpfc_sli4_offline_eratt gets the call → HBA goes offline. periodt. that's the entire job description, no cap 💀

⚠️ heads up: this is the "hardware is being weird" path, not the Port Error 6 path — don't mix them up bestie, they are NOT the same 😭

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

okay this list is genuinely iconic but also unhinged, there are like a hundred of them, so buckle up 🍓 — they all live in the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_init.c 💜

🦋 ok bye ily 🦋

and that's the whole page bestie, no notes 💅✨ this one came out of ./drivers/scsi/lpfc — October 2026 energy, lpfc_sli4_offline_eratt(9) forever, mwah 🫶🎀🌈
