mvumi_io_attach(9)
π mvumi_io_attach(9) β a page from the Kernel API Manual, section 9
okay so bestie, welcome to the mvumi corner of the kernel πΈ this is the manual page for mvumi_io_attach, and yes it's giving very "one function, whole personality" energy. let's get into it β¨
π NAME π
mvumi_io_attach β attaches this driver to the SCSI mid-layer. that's it, that's the whole job. she introduces the driver to the mid-layer like "hii bestie, you're gonna be seeing a lot of me" π«Ά
β SYNOPSIS β
int mvumi_io_attach (struct mvumi_hba *mhba );
literally one function, one argument, returns an int. no cap, that's the whole signature π₯
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
mhbaβ the adapter soft state π ngl that's exactly how the page describes it and honestly? iconic. it's the per-adapter struct you hand over so the driver knows which HBA it's dealing with.
π SEE ALSO π
so there's a whole friend group here β kernel file ./drivers/scsi/mvumi.c, plus a truly long list of sibling functions. iykyk, go read them all:
mvumi_make_sgl(9)mvumi_get_cmd(9)mvumi_return_cmd(9)mvumi_free_cmds(9)mvumi_alloc_cmds(9)mvumi_init_data(9)mvumi_handshake(9)mvumi_complete_cmd(9)mvumi_enable_intr(9)mvumi_disable_intr(9)mvumi_read_fw_status_reg(9)mvumi_build_frame(9)mvumi_queue_command(9)mvumi_init_fw(9)mvumi_probe_one(9)mvumi_shutdown(9)
and that's the page, bestie π short, sweet, and to the point β not every manpage needs to be a whole saga. main character energy can be concise β¨
this has been mvumi_io_attach(9) from the ./drivers/scsi source, dated October 2026 β mwah, go write some kernel code πβ¨ π
