scsi_remove_single_device(9)

💅 scsi_remove_single_device(9) — Kernel API Manual 💅

Okay bestie, welcome to the kernel docs group chat 🫶 this one is literally about removing a device when a user asks for it, and we're gonna keep every deet intact.

🎀 NAME 🎀

scsi_remove_single_device — respond to a user request to remove a device. That's the assignment, no cap 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int scsi_remove_single_device (uint host , uint channel , uint id , uint lun );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• host — user-supplied decimal integer ✨
• channel — user-supplied decimal integer 🎀
• id — user-supplied decimal integer 🦋
• lun — user-supplied decimal integer 💫

All four are user-supplied decimal integers, and yes, that is the whole vibe check for these arguments 🔥

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

This function gets called by writing "scsi remove-single-device" to /proc/scsi/scsi — that's the trigger, bestie, straight from the original lore 👑

It does a scsi_device_lookup and scsi_remove_device. That's the move. No extra invented steps, fr fr 💅

The source says it does those two things — scsi_device_lookup and scsi_remove_device — so we're not adding any extra main-character plot twists here 😌
