💅 scsi_queue_work(9) — the group-chat recap

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for scsi_queue_work(9) ✨ this is the whole vibe, and yes I'm gonna walk you through it like we're texting at 2am 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

scsi_queue_work — literally just "queue work to the Scsi_Host workqueue", that's the whole thing, no cap 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

int scsi_queue_work (struct Scsi_Host *shost , struct work_struct *work
);

that's it. that's the signature. iconic. 👑

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • shost — pointer to a Scsi_Host. yes, the actual host struct, don't be weird about it 🐛
  • work — the work you want to queue for execution. hand it over, she's got places to be 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the return value is kinda the whole plot here, bestie — read it carefully because this is genuinely the important part:

  • 1 — work queued for execution ✅ slayed, it's in
  • 0 — work is already queued 🫠 like girl it's already been handled, no double-dipping
  • -EINVAL — work queue doesn't exist 💀 there's nothing to queue into, oops
ngl, the answer tells you exactly what happened, so actually look at it instead of just ignoring the return like a main character 🙈
