πŸ’– megasas_return_cmd(9) πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for megasas_return_cmd β€” yes that's the whole name, yes it's a mouthful, no we're not shortening it, it's iconic as-is. This is the little function that gives a command back to the free command pool when you're done with it. Like returning your shopping cart. But for SCSI. πŸ›’βœ¨


🌸 NAME 🌸

megasas_return_cmd β€” Return a cmd to free command pool

that's it. that's the job. give the cmd back so somebody else can use it. very sharing-is-caring of you, lowkey 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void megasas_return_cmd (struct megasas_instance *instance , struct
megasas_cmd *cmd );

look at that signature. it returns void, meaning it doesn't hand you anything back β€” the vibes are the reward. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • instance β€” Adapter soft state. this is the big-picture context object for the adapter you're working with, iykyk.
  • cmd β€” Command packet to be returned to free command pool. the actual thing you're handing back, bestie. say bye to it and let it go πŸ¦‹

that's NINETY-SOMETHING cross-references. we ate. we devoured. the SEE ALSO section is the main character here, honestly. πŸ”₯


ngl bestie, that's the entire page β€” no warnings, no bugs section, no exit statuses, no environment variables. sometimes the manpage is short and that's its business. πŸ’€

and that's a wrap from ./drivers/scsi/megaraid, dated October 2026, signed, sealed, and delivered by megasas_return_cmd(9) β€” mwah πŸ’‹βœ¨ go return that cmd, queen πŸ‘‘
