💅 mpt3sas_base_fault_info(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 💅

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, something went wrong, and the firmware hands you a sad little number called a FAULT code. this page is about the girl whose whole job is turning that number into actual words you can read. verbose translation, no cap. it lives in the mpt3sas corner of the SCSI world and honestly? she's doing the most for you. 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

mpt3sas_base_fault_info — verbose translation of firmware FAULT code 🌸

like… it takes the cryptic fault code and translates it, verbosely. iconic behavior honestly.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void mpt3sas_base_fault_info (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , u16 fault_code );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. returns void, so don't go looking for a return value, she gives you nothing back except knowledge. 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • ioc — per adapter object 🦋 (the adapter in question, your main character)
  • fault_code — fault code 💀 (the mystery number that's about to get explained to you in full sentences)

✨ SEE ALSO ✨

first up, the source file herself, the kernel file:

and now… the whole squad. literally the entire friend group, all of them (9), all of them invited to the group chat 👑:

fr fr that's all of them, not a single one dropped. iykyk 💖

lowkey reminder before you go: this page is about translating a FAULT code into words, that's the whole job. don't go expecting it to fix anything for you, bestie. it just tells you what the firmware is screaming about. 🙈

okay that's the page!! stay hydrated, read your fault codes, and remember she lives in ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas — that's the directory, and the date on this whole thing is October 2026. mwah 💋✨🎀
