mpi3mr_count_tgt_pending(9)

💅 mpi3mr_count_tgt_pending — a Kernel API Manual moment (section 9, bestie)

okay so first of all, the manual we're living in is mpi3mr_count_tgt_pending(9) — that's the header, that's the whole identity, and honestly? iconic. ✨

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

mpi3mr_count_tgt_pending — count commands pending for target. that's it, that's the whole job, no cap 🫶

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

bool mpi3mr_count_tgt_pending (struct request *rq , void *data );

like, look at her. she takes two args and gives you back a bool. simple, clean, main character energy 💅

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• rq — the Block request. that's the block-layer request we're side-eyeing, periodt.
• data — the SCSI target reference. this is the target we care about. the one. the only. 💖

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

okay so listen. this is an iterator function — lowercase important, highkey important — and it gets called for each SCSI command in a host.

and then, bestie, here's the vibe check: if the command is pending in the LLD for the specific target, then the target-specific pending I/O counter gets updated in the target structure. that's the whole move. it goes through, checks the pending-ness, and bumps the counter for that target. no drama, no extra steps, just counting. 🧚

---

🔥 RETURN 🔥

true — always. literally always. true is the answer, true is the vibe, true is her final form. 💀✨

---

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

also go read the kernel file ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_os.c — that's home base, that's where the lore lives. 📁

and then, because she has friends, here's the whole group chat (all in section 9, obviously):

ngl if you read that entire SEE ALSO list out loud you deserve a snack. go get one. you've earned it 🎀

okay and finally the cute little sign-off version of the footer, because she lives in ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr, the page is dated October 2026, and her name is — say it with me — mpi3mr_count_tgt_pending(9). 🦋💖 mwah.
