okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a little function from the kernel side of things, and it is literally the vibe check for your connect() errors 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

nvmf_log_connect_error — the error-parsing-diagnostic print out function for connect() errors, no cap 💖

like, it takes your scary numeric error and turns it into something a human can actually read 😭 iconic behavior honestly

offset , struct nvme_command *cmd , struct nvmf_connect_data *data );

five arguments, zero drama, returns nothing (it's a void, she's just here to tell you what went wrong 💅)

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • ctrl — the specific /dev/nvmeX device that had the error 💀 like, which device was being extra, we know now

  • offset — for use with the NVMe error code NVME_SC_CONNECT_INVALID_PARAM 🦋 that's its whole moment, that's what it's for
  • cmd — this is the SQE portion of a submission capsule 🌈 yes bestie, the SQE part
  • data — this is the "Data" portion of a submission capsule 🍓 the other half of the capsule, matching set fr fr
ngl the whole thing is a diagnostic helper — it prints out, it does not fix your connect error for you 😭 she's a narrator, not a magician
