lpfc_sli_abort_iocb_ring(9)

💅 lpfc_sli_abort_iocb_ring(9)

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the group-chat debrief for lpfc_sli_abort_iocb_ring, and honestly? she's giving cleanup era. 🧹✨

---

🌸 NAME

lpfc_sli_abort_iocb_ring — Abort all iocbs in the ring. literally all of them. no survivors, we love a decisive queen 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS

void lpfc_sli_abort_iocb_ring (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct
lpfc_sli_ring *pring );

returns void, because she's not here to give you feedback, she's here to do the thing 😌

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS

• phba — Pointer to HBA context object. it's the whole adapter's main-character context, pls handle with care 🫶
• pring — Pointer to driver SLI ring object. this is the specific ring we're about to clear out, so like… pick the right one bestie 🙈

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION

So here's the tea: this function aborts all iocbs in the given ring and frees all the iocb objects in txq. A full reset of the vibe. 💀

It does this by issuing an abort iocb for all the iocb commands in txcmplq. so she sends the abort for everything waiting in the completion queue, no cap.

⚠️ But listen — the iocbs in the txcmplq are not guaranteed to complete before the return of this function. so don't come for me if they're still out there living their life when she hands control back, okay? it's giving "sent the text, not waiting for a reply" 📱

And the good news: the caller is not required to hold any locks. no lock choreography needed, she handles her own business ✨👑
