int megasas_ld_list_query (struct megasas_instance *instance , u8

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

It issues an internal command (DCMD) to get the FW's controller PD list structure. This information is mainly used to find out SYSTEM supported by the FW. That's the whole plot: DCMD in, controller PD list structure out, and the info helps find out SYSTEM supported by the FW. πŸ”₯
