qla2x00_async_event(9)

💅 qla2x00_async_event(9) — like, the kernel API manual bestie, section 9

Okay so before we even get into it: this whole thing lives in the qla2xxx kernel API manual, section 9, and it's literally all about processing async events (the manpage spells it "aychronous" but we're not gonna be mean about it, the kernel has enough going on). 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

qla2x00_async_event — Process aynchronous events.

No cap, that's the entire job description. It processes aynchronous events. That's the vibe. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void qla2x00_async_event (scsi_qla_host_t *vha , struct rsp_que *rsp ,
uint16_t *mb );

Yeah it's a void function, it does the work and dips, no return value, no notes. Three args, all of them important, don't skip any of them, iykyk. ⭐

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• vha — the SCSI driver HA context. Like, this is the whole host adapter's situation, its little world. 🦋
• rsp — the response queue. Where the responses be responding. 🍓
• mb — the Mailbox registers, and it's specifically 0 - 3. Not 0 through 4, not 1 through 3, 0 - 3. Respect the range. 🔥

Quick reminder bestie: the manpage really does spell "aynchronous" with the y. That's not me being ✨quirky✨, that's just what it says. 🌈
