sci_remote_n...r_node_index(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ NAME ✨

sci_remote_node_table_clear_node_index — and honestly bestie, the original page just leaves the description blank after that dash 🫶 so like… the name is the whole vibe. It clears a node index from the remote node table. That's it, that's the girl 💅

This one lives in the Kernel API Manual 📖 (yes, that manual — the big one 🧚)

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void sci_remote_node_table_clear_node_index (struct
       sci_remote_node_table *remote_node_table , u32 remote_node_index );

Two args, both of them doing exactly what their names say, no plot twists, no cap ⭐

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • remote_node_table — this is the remote node table you're working on, aka the thing you're clearing the available remote node bit from. It's giving "the source of truth and we're editing it" energy 🌈
  • remote_node_index — the remote node index that's getting cleared out of the table. Say bye 👋

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so this method clears the remote node index from the table of available remote nodes ✨ That's the entire job. That's the whole quest.

Literally nothing else happens here — the original notes none at the end of the description, and I'm not gonna invent lore that isn't there 🙈 fr fr. Just call it, it clears the index, done, iconic 💅

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

Kernel file: ./drivers/scsi/isci/remote_node_table.c — that's where the actual code lives, go read her 👑

The whole friend group of related calls, all of them (9) section, all of them part of the same squad:

lowkey the whole flow is: initialize → allocate → set/clear your indexes → release. Read the whole set together, iykyk 🦋

and that's the page!! shoutout to ./drivers/scsi/isci, dated October 2026, still serving kernel docs realness 💜 mwah, bye bestie 🫶🌸
