lpfc_sli4_unregister_fcf(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so this is lpfc_sli4_unregister_fcf(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and it is literally here to Unregister currently registered FCF record. That's the name, that's the mission, no cap. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int lpfc_sli4_unregister_fcf (struct lpfc_hba *phba );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• phba — Pointer to hba context object. 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the tea: this function issues a synchronous unregister FCF mailbox command to the HBA. Its whole job is to unregister the currently registered FCF record. That's it. That's the assignment. ✨

and the important little caveat: the driver does not reset the driver FCF usage state flags. So yeah — do not expect this function to touch those flags, because the page says it doesn't. 🙈

Return 0 if successfully issued, non-zero otherwise. Simple as that, bestie. 💖
