qla2x00_gfpn_id(9)

💅 qla2x00_gfpn_id — like, the SNS Get Fabric Port Name query, bestie

Okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual — qla2x00_gfpn_id(9) — and it's lowkey one of those tiny-but-iconic functions. Let's get into it. 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

qla2x00_gfpn_id — the SNS Get Fabric Port Name (GFPN_ID) query. Yeah. That's the whole vibe. She asks the fabric for a port name and that's her whole job. Slay. 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int qla2x00_gfpn_id (scsi_qla_host_t *vha , sw_info_t *list );

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• vha — your HA context, aka the host adapter's whole situation. She needs it. 🫶
• list — the switch info entries that get populated. That's where the answer lands, so like… hand her an empty one, iykyk. 💖

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Returns 0 on success. That's it. That's the description. Minimalist queen. 👑

ngl the manpage really said "short and sweet" and committed to it — no extra lore, no side quests, just: call it, get 0, you're iconic. ✨
