mpt3sas_base...ly_virt_addr(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

mpt3sas_base_get_reply_virt_addr — okay so this is the girl that hands you the virt address of your reply frames 💅

(also hi, this is the mpt3sas_base...ly_virt_addr(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, truncation and all, we don't judge — the header was literally too long for the terminal and honestly? relatable 😭)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void * mpt3sas_base_get_reply_virt_addr (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc ,
       u32 phys_addr );

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

  • ioc — the per adapter object 🫶 like, your whole controller's lil identity, bestie.
  • phys_addr — the lower 32 physical addr of the reply. lowercase 32, not the whole thing, just the bottom half, no cap ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

So what does she do? She takes that 32bit lower physical addr and converts it into a virt address. That's the whole plot 🎀 physical in, virtual out, main character energy only 💅

It's giving translation services. It's giving "you had the address, but it was the wrong kind of address." She fixes that. Slay 💜

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

Kernel file ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas/mpt3sas_base.c — that's where she lives, go say hi 🏠

And now the friend group, because this page literally lists the entire mpt3sas extended family and I'm not skipping a single one, that would be so rude 🙈 here we go:

Yeah. That's the whole group chat. Every single one invited, no one left on read 💀🫶

bestie note: this page is under ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas 🦋 dated October 2026, and the full name it goes by is mpt3sas_base...ly_virt_addr(9) — yes with the dots, yes it's a vibe, we're keeping it exactly like that 💅✨ slay, go convert some addresses 🎀
