πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

okay besties, gather round β€” this page is from the Kernel API Manual and it's all about mpt3sas_config_get_sas_iounit_pg1 β€” literally just obtain sas iounit page 1. that's the whole vibe. she fetches, she returns, she slays. πŸ¦‹


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int mpt3sas_config_get_sas_iounit_pg1 (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc ,
Mpi2ConfigReply_t *mpi_reply , Mpi2SasIOUnitPage1_t *config_page , u16
sz );

like look at her signature. four whole arguments. main character energy fr fr πŸ‘‘


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • ioc β€” the per adapter object, aka the hardware's whole personality πŸ’–
  • mpi_reply β€” the reply mf payload that comes back from firmware (yes, "mf" as in the actual original wording, we respect the lore) ✨
  • config_page β€” the contents of the config page. this is the tea she's serving 🍡
  • sz β€” the size of the buffer you passed in config_page. don't lie about it bestie, she needs the real number πŸ’€

🌸 CONTEXT 🌸

sleep.

that's it. that's the context. she naps. 😴 not me being jealous of a kernel function's work-life balanceβ€”


🫢 DESCRIPTION 🫢

okay so here's the thing, and this is lowkey important: the calling function should call config_get_number_hba_phys prior to this function. no cap. the reason is so that enough memory is allocated for config_page. skip that step and you're gonna have a bad time, and not in a fun way 😭

like it's giving "read the instructions before you assemble the furniture." do it in order. periodt.


⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • 0 for success πŸŽ‰
  • non-zero for failure πŸ™ˆ

binary queen. no in-between, no situationship, just zero or not-zero.

like?? fifty-eight references?? she's connected. she knows everybody. iykyk 🌈


ngl this whole page lives under ./drivers/scsi/mpt3sas, dated October 2026, and the page itself answers to mpt3sas_con...s_iounit_pg1(9) (yes it's abbreviated in the header, we don't question her choices πŸ’œ).

okay that's the page!! go forth, allocate your memory first, and stan a config function that respects its own nap schedule πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈπŸ’–
