💅 qla4xxx_send_marker_iocb — ok bestie, let's talk

So this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? It's a whole vibe. Sit down, grab a strawberry drink 🍓, and let's get into it.

✨ NAME ✨

qla4xxx_send_marker_iocb — literally just issues a marker iocb to the HBA. That's the tweet, that's the whole thing. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int qla4xxx_send_marker_iocb (struct scsi_qla_host *ha , struct
ddb_entry *ddb_entry , uint64_t lun , uint16_t mrkr_mod );

Look at that signature. Four args. Clean. Iconic. No cap. 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ha — pointer to the host adapter structure. Like, the main character of the operation tbh.
  • ddb_entry — pointer to the device database entry. Your device's little passport, bestie. 🛂
  • lun — the SCSI LUN. You know what a LUN is, don't make me say it. iykyk.
  • mrkr_mod — the marker identifier. The marker's mod. It's giving "tiny but crucial."

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

This routine issues a marker IOCB. That's it. That's the description. Short, sweet, and absolutely slaying in its brevity. 💅

ngl, the manpage author woke up and chose minimalism. Respect.
