mpt3sas_base..._cmd_timeout(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 mpt3sas_base_check_cmd_timeout — NAME

okay so bestie, this is a page out of the Kernel API Manual and honestly the star of the show is mpt3sas_base_check_cmd_timeout — a function that checks for a timeout, and checks whether the command got terminated because of a Host reset. That's it, that's the whole vibe. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

u8 mpt3sas_base_check_cmd_timeout (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , u8
       status , void *mpi_request , int sz );

like… look at her. four args, returns a u8. main character energy fr fr. 🦋

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • ioc — the per-adapter object, aka the whole controller's little world 💖
  • status — the status of the command that got issued 👀
  • mpi_request — the mf request pointer, no cap (mf is what the page says, we're not editing her) 🫶
  • sz — size of the buffer, literally just how big it is 🎀

⭐ RETURN ⭐

1/0 — meaning Reset to be done or Not. so like, a yes/no on whether a reset needs to happen. periodt. 💅

lowkey important: those are the only two answers she gives. 1 = reset, 0 = no reset. no in-between, no "maybe", no vibes-based answer. 😭
