mpi3mr_sas_port_add(9)

💅 mpi3mr_sas_port_add(9) — Kernel API Manual ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

mpi3mr_sas_port_add — Expose the SAS device to the SAS TL 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

struct mpi3mr_sas_port * mpi3mr_sas_port_add (struct mpi3mr_ioc *mrioc ,
       u16 handle , u64 sas_address_parent , struct mpi3mr_hba_port *hba_port
       );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• mrioc — adapter instance reference — like, the adapter’s whole identity, bestie 💅
• handle — firmware device handle of the attached device 🔥
• sas_address_parent — sas address of parent expander or host 🧚
• hba_port — HBA port entry 🎀

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so this function creates a new sas port object for the given end device that matches the sas address and hba_port 🫶 Then it adds that object to the sas_node’s sas_port_list and exposes the attached sas device to the SAS transport layer through sas_rphy_add. That’s the whole glow-up, no cap ✨

Returns a valid mpi3mr_sas_port reference or NULL 💀
