✨ mpi3mr_scan_start(9) ✨

okay so bestie, you're in the Kernel API Manual (the mpi3mr_scan_start(9) girlies know 💅) and this page is about one tiny little callback that kicks off a scan. short page, but she's important. let's go 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

mpi3mr_scan_start — the scan start callback handler ✨

like, that's literally her job description. scan. start. callback. handler. iconic behavior honestly 👑

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void mpi3mr_scan_start (struct Scsi_Host *shost );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. no cap 🫶

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

  • shost — a SCSI host reference 🖇️ like, it's the host she's gonna do the thing with. don't lose it, bestie.

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Issue port enable request asynchronously.

that's the tea ☕ — she fires off the port enable request and does not sit around waiting for it, because async is the moment and blocking is not the assignment 💀 ngl that's the whole function right there.

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Nothing. nope, no value, no exit code, no little treat for you at the end 😭 she just returns void and dips 💨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

buckle up bestie, this is the whole girl-gang of the ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr/mpi3mr_os.c kernel file (like, literally the file, go look at it 💖) and every single one of these is invited to the group chat 🫶:

bestie note 🧚: mpi3mr_scan_finished(9) is in that list too, so like… she's got a partner in crime. go read her next, iykyk 💅

and that's the whole page, bestie 💖 sourced straight from ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr, dated October 2026, so she's fresh ✨ now go forth and enable some ports, asynchronously, like the main character you are 👑💜
