π megaraid_cmm_register β a kernel API moment π
okay so bestie, welcome to the megaraid_cmm_register(9) page, straight out of the Kernel API Manual β¨ this is the "hi, i'm here, register me" moment for the megaRAID driver, and honestly? it's giving main character energy π
πΈ NAME πΈ
megaraid_cmm_register β literally just register with the management module, no cap π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int megaraid_cmm_register (adapter_t *adapter );

π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
adapterβ this is the HBA soft state, aka the little bundle of driver state the adapter keeps around π§
π DESCRIPTION π
so what does it do? it registers with the management module, periodt. and why does that matter? because once you're registered, applications can issue ioctl calls to the drivers β slay π₯
highkey the best part: this interface is also what the management module uses to set up sysfs support β¨ iykyk, sysfs support is iconic π
