πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… lun_from_dev(9) β€” Kernel API Manual πŸ’…

okay so bestie, welcome to lun_from_dev(9) from the Kernel API Manual β€” it's a tiny little page but it does exactly one thing and it does it iconically. no cap.


✨ NAME ✨

lun_from_dev β€” literally returns the lun of the scsi device. that's it. that's the whole gig. she's a one-job icon and she ate. πŸ‘‘


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u16 lun_from_dev (struct scsi_device *dev );

copy it exactly like that, mwah. πŸ’‹


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • dev β€” a struct scsi_device. that's the whole description, bestie, the docs said "struct scsi_device" and honestly? valid. it's giving "the assignment was one sentence and I submitted one sentence." 🫢
lowkey a vibe check: the function hands you back a u16 (that's the return type up in the synopsis, iykyk), and the only thing it wants from you is that dev pointer. no hidden extras, no secret flags, fr fr.

πŸ¦‹ SEE ALSO πŸ¦‹

okay this is where it gets spicy 🌢️ β€” the original just dumps the entire ibmvscsi cast list on you, and we are NOT skipping a single one, because every name here is a main character:

like… forty whole references. she said "here's my entire friend group, meet everyone." πŸ’€ iconic behavior honestly.
