scsi_evt_emit(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay bestie, welcome to scsi_evt_emit(9) — this one is from the Kernel API Manual, and it does exactly one cute job: emit a single SCSI device uevent. Periodt. ✨

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void scsi_evt_emit (struct scsi_device *sdev , struct scsi_event *evt );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sdev — the associated SCSI device, aka the device this whole thing is attached to 💅
• evt — the event to emit, aka the little message getting sent out 🫶

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Send a single uevent (scsi_event) to the associated scsi_device. That’s the whole vibe: one event, one device, no extra drama. 💖
