💖 scsi_eh_reset(9) — Kernel API Manual 💖

okay so bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for scsi_eh_reset(9), and it’s lowkey tiny but iconic. let’s get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

scsi_eh_reset — call into ->eh_action to reset internal counters

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void scsi_eh_reset (struct scsi_cmnd *scmd );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• scmd — scmd to run eh on.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the scsi driver might be carrying internal state about the devices. because of that, we need to call into the driver to reset the internal state once the error handler is started. that’s the whole assignment, no cap 🫶
