πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… lpfc_sli4_unreg_all_rpis β€” ok bestie, let's talk kernel API

So this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual section name, keep up πŸ’–), and it's all about one little function that lives in the land of lpfc β€” the Emulex/Broadcom Fibre Channel driver. Buckle up, it's short but iconic πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

lpfc_sli4_unreg_all_rpis β€” unregister all the RPIs for a vport on an SLI4 HBA. That's the whole vibe. No cap. πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void lpfc_sli4_unreg_all_rpis (struct lpfc_vport *vport );

Literally that's it. She takes one arg and returns void β€” no return value, she gives nothing back and she's at peace with that πŸ™ˆ


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • vport β€” pointer to a vport object. Yeah, that's the entire description, bestie, the manpage is not verbose today 😭 That's your vport, hand her the pointer, she'll do her thing.

πŸ’… DESCRIPTION πŸ’…

Okay so here's the tea β˜• β€” this routine sends a mailbox command to unregister all active RPIs for a vport. That's it. That's the function. She's a one-job queen and she executes πŸ‘‘

Mailbox command, all active RPIs, one vport, done. No extra steps, no secret side quests listed on the page. Periodt. ✨

πŸ’€ Friendly reminder that the only thing this page promises is the mailbox command to unregister all active RPIs for a vport. Don't go inventing extra behaviour, iykyk.

and that's the whole page, bestie 🌈 It's sourced from ./drivers/scsi/lpfc, dated October 2026, sitting pretty in the Kernel API Manual alongside her fifty-whatever besties up in SEE ALSO. Go unregister those RPIs, main character πŸŽ€βœ¨πŸ‘‘
