🦋 mpt3sas_get_pdev_by_handle(9) 🦋

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this is the page for mpt3sas_get_pdev_by_handle, and honestly? it's a little lookup gremlin and it's doing its job flawlessly 💅

✨ NAME ✨

mpt3sas_get_pdev_by_handle — pcie device search, that's literally the whole vibe 🔍

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct _pcie_device * mpt3sas_get_pdev_by_handle (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER
*ioc , u16 handle );

like. it takes two things and hands you back a struct _pcie_device *. iconic behaviour, no notes 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • ioc — the per adapter object. yes that's the whole description, it's giving "she said what she said" 💀 this is your adapter, your main character, the whole MPT3SAS_ADAPTER situation.
  • handle — the Firmware device handle. this is the lil ID number you're searching for, so bring the right one or she's gonna find nothing 🌈

🔥 CONTEXT 🔥

okay so this is the important bit, do NOT skip it bestie:

This function will acquire ioc->pcie_device_lock and will release it before returning the pcie_device object. so like, the lock is handled for you, don't go doubling up on locking, she's already got it and she's already let it go by the time you get your object ✨🔒

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

This searches for pcie_device based on handle, then returns the pcie_device object. that's it. that's the function. she searches, she finds, she returns. lowkey the most straightforward girl in the whole mpt3sas driver 🧚 and honestly? we love a simple queen 👑
