mega_del_logdrv(9)

๐Ÿ“ฆ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

๐Ÿ’– mega_del_logdrv(9) ๐Ÿ’–

okay so bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for mega_del_logdrv(9). Itโ€™s giving โ€œkernel business, but make it cuteโ€, and weโ€™re gonna get through it together. ๐ŸŽ€


๐ŸŒธ NAME ๐ŸŒธ

mega_del_logdrv โ€” thatโ€™s the name, periodt. No extra summary here; the NAME line is just the name and a dash. ๐Ÿ’…

โœจ SYNOPSIS โœจ

The signature is exactly this, no cap:

int mega_del_logdrv (adapter_t *adapter , int logdrv );

๐ŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS ๐ŸŽ€

Okay so there are two things going in:

  • adapter โ€” pointer to our soft state. Thatโ€™s the exact vibe from the page. ๐Ÿซถ
  • logdrv โ€” logical drive to be deleted. Yep, thatโ€™s the one getting the delete treatment.

๐Ÿฆ‹ DESCRIPTION ๐Ÿฆ‹

So this call deletes the specified logical drive โ€” the one you picked with logdrv, with adapter carrying your soft state pointer. Slay. ๐Ÿ’…

But listen: the page is very clear that it is the responsibility of the user app to let the OS know about this operation. So this function is not out here doing the announcement for you; thatโ€™s the user appโ€™s job. No cap, donโ€™t forget it. ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Caveat, bestie: the user app owns the โ€œtell the OS what just happenedโ€ part of this operation. Thatโ€™s literally what the manpage says, and itโ€™s important. ๐Ÿซถ

๐Ÿ’… SEE ALSO ๐Ÿ’…

The page points you at the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/megaraid.c and this whole iconic guest list of (9) friends. Hereโ€™s every single one, bestie โ€” no skipping. ๐Ÿ‘‘


okay thatโ€™s the whole page, bestie. Sign-off: source/version is ./drivers/scsi, date is October 2026, and the page is mega_del_logdrv(9). mwah ๐Ÿ’‹๐ŸŽ€
