💅 mpi3mr_get_iocstate — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay so bestie, welcome to the mpi3mr_get_iocstate(9) page ✨ this is kernel API manual territory, and yes it's short, but it's iconic short. sit down, grab a snack 🍓

🌸 NAME 🌸

mpi3mr_get_iocstate — Get IOC State. that's the whole vibe. it gets the IOC state. no cap 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

enum mpi3mr_iocstate mpi3mr_get_iocstate (struct mpi3mr_ioc *mrioc );

there it is. one function, one pointer, one return type. clean. minimal. main character energy 👑

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • mrioc — Adapter instance reference 💖 literally just a pointer to the adapter instance you're asking about. that's it. that's the argument.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so what does it actually do? it returns a proper IOC state enum — and the way it decides is by looking at three things, together, as a little trio:

  • the IOC status 👀
  • the IOC configuration 📋
  • the unrecoverable state of the controller 💀

all that gets cooked together and you get back a legit IOC state enum. no guessing, no vibes-only answer — it's giving authoritative. periodt.

💜 RETURN 💜

Current IOC state. 🔥 that's it, that's the return value — the current state of the IOC, as an enum mpi3mr_iocstate. short and slay.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

kernel file: ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_fw.c — that's where the source lives, iykyk 🧚

and now, the full friend group 😭 every single one of these, in order, exactly as they appear:

ngl there are like a hundred of them and i listed every single one because that's the assignment 💅 no skipping the "boring" parts on my watch.

okay that's the page!! and for the cute sign-off: this little gem comes from ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr, dated October 2026 🎀 she's fresh, she's kernel-side, she's yours now. go read a struct and hydrate bestie 💖✨🦋
