mpt3sas_trigger_mpi(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… mpt3sas_trigger_mpi β€” the MPI trigger handler, bestie

okay so picture this: we're deep in the kernel, section 9 of the Kernel API Manual, and the function on the cover is mpt3sas_trigger_mpi. Say it with me β€” em-pee-eye trigger handler ✨ It's the lil' handler that deals with MPI triggers, and honestly? It's giving "quietly doing its job in the SCSI stack" energy.


✨ NAME ✨

mpt3sas_trigger_mpi β€” the MPI trigger handler πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void mpt3sas_trigger_mpi (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , u16 ioc_status ,
u32 loginfo );

Not me writing out the signature exactly β€” yes, all three args, in that order, void return, no cap. πŸ“


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • ioc β€” the per adapter object 🫢 like, the whole adapter, cosied up in one pointer.
  • ioc_status β€” ? πŸ™ˆ bestie the docs literally just say ?. That's it. That's the whole description. I'm not gonna invent lore for it, so ? it stays.
  • loginfo β€” also ? πŸ’€ same situation, the manual gives us a question mark and honestly? We respect it.
lowkey iconic that two of the three arguments are documented as ? β€” not me defending it, just saying the manpage said what it said and I'm not about to make stuff up πŸ’…
