💅 lpfc_sli_check_eratt(9) — check error attention events 👑

okay so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, bestie, and it's literally called lpfc_sli_check_eratt(9). yes the name is a mouthful, we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

lpfc_sli_check_eratt — check error attention events 🔥

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int lpfc_sli_check_eratt (struct lpfc_hba *phba );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • phba — Pointer to HBA context. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💖

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea ☕ — this function gets called from timer soft interrupt context, and what it does is peek at the HBA's error attention register bit to check for error attention events. like a little vibe check but for hardware, iykyk.

and the return values are super simple, no cap:

  • it returns 1 when there is Error Attention in the Host Attention Register
  • and it returns 0 otherwise

that's the whole personality tbh. iconic, minimal, does exactly one thing 🌈

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

the kernel file is ./drivers/scsi/lpfc/lpfc_sli.c, and the friend group is... enormous. like, huge. every single one of these is invited to the group chat, no one gets left out 💜

that's the whole page bestie, you ate that 💅✨

kisses, this one lives in ./drivers/scsi/lpfc, dated October 2026, and the manual entry answers to lpfc_sli_check_eratt(9) — mwah 🎀🦋
