mpi3mr_update_tgtdev(9)
π mpi3mr_update_tgtdev(9) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ β this one's a little kernel function from the mpi3mr driver and honestly it's giving "quiet little worker bee that keeps the whole device list from falling apart" ππ
πΈ NAME πΈ
mpi3mr_update_tgtdev β the DevStatusChange evt bottomhalf, no cap π«
π SYNOPSIS π
void mpi3mr_update_tgtdev (struct mpi3mr_ioc *mrioc , struct
mpi3mr_tgt_dev *tgtdev , struct mpi3_device_page0 *dev_pg0 , bool
is_added );
that's the whole signature bb, copy it exactly, do not touch a single character π«Ά
β¨ ARGUMENTS β¨
mriocβ the adapter instance reference π aka "which controller are we even talking about"tgtdevβ the target device's internal structure β the driver's own lil home for that device πdev_pg0β the new device page0 π (fresh out of firmware, still warm)is_addedβ a flag that tells you the device was just added π like, brand new, first day energy
π DESCRIPTION π
So what this icon actually does π: it takes all the info from device page0 and updates it into the driver's cached target device structure πΎβ¨
Everything the driver remembers about that device? Yeah. It gets refreshed from page0 and lives in the cached struct. Lowkey essential glue work, highkey slay π§
π RETURN π
Nothing. That's it. It returns void, bestie β no value, no drama, no return-code to check π (so don't go doing if (mpi3mr_update_tgtdev(...)) because there is literally nothing to compare, ok?) π
π SEE ALSO π
first up, the kernel file where all this lives:

like I said. the whole group chat π€ no one gets left on read π
anyway that's the page!! this lil beauty ships out of ./drivers/scsi/mpi3mr and it's dated October 2026 πΈ so yeah, from the future, obviously π
go forth and update those cached target devices bestie, mwah π«Άβ¨π
