mpt3sas_base..._smid_scsiio(9)

💖 Kernel API Manual 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

mpt3sas_base_get_smid_scsiio — obtain a free smid from the scsiio queue, bestie. This is the mpt3sas_base..._smid_scsiio(9) page, and she is literally here to help you grab that free smid. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

The signature, exactly as it appears, no edits, no cap:

       u16 mpt3sas_base_get_smid_scsiio (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , u8
       cb_idx , struct scsi_cmnd *scmd );

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

okay so the crew is:

• ioc (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *) — per adapter object.
• cb_idx (u8) — callback index.
• scmd (struct scsi_cmnd *) — pointer to scsi command object.

---

💅 RETURN 💅

The return is the smid — and zero is invalid, so do not come for zero, periodt 💀. Zero is not the vibe.
