mpi3mr_pcietopochg_evt_bh(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

mpi3mr_pcietopochg_evt_bh β€” PCIeTopologyChange evt bottomhalf

okay so bestie, this is straight out of the Kernel API Manual, section 9 πŸ’… β€” yes, the <pink>9</pink> like a real grown-up kernel function. She's the bottomhalf handler for PCIe topology change events and she's lowkey carrying the whole "did something move in the PCIe tree" situation. πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void mpi3mr_pcietopochg_evt_bh (struct mpi3mr_ioc *mrioc , struct
mpi3mr_fwevt *fwevt );

that's it, that's the whole vibe check. returns nothing, takes two pointers, slays silently. ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • mrioc β€” the adapter instance reference 🫢 like, the actual controller we're talking about here
  • fwevt β€” the firmware event reference πŸ’– the event itself, the little messenger

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

okay so what she does is: she prints information about the PCIe topology change event β€” literally announces it to the world, no cap πŸ‘‘

and then β€” and this is the main character part β€” for the "not responding" event code, she removes the device from the upper layers. like, the device's not answering, so she's escorting it out of the group chat. periodt. 😭

ngl, that removal is the part that actually matters β€” she doesn't just gossip about the topology change, she acts on the "not responding" one. fr fr.

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Nothing. literally nothing. void. she gives and gives and asks for nothing back πŸŽ€


🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

first up, the kernel file herself β€” she lives in ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_os.c 🧚 and then, bestie, the whole extended friend group. like, everyone. the entire mpi3mr family reunion πŸ‘‘


and that's the whole page, bestie 🫢 β€” this little icon lives in ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr and the copyright vibes are dated October 2026. go forth and handle those topology changes, iykyk πŸ’…βœ¨
