🎀 target_submit_tmr(9) 🎀

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — this one is target_submit_tmr(9) and it's literally the glow-up moment where an uninitialized se_cmd becomes a real TMR submission. it looks up the unpacked lun, then submits. periodt. 💅

✨ NAME ✨

target_submit_tmr — the function that does the lookup of the unpacked lun and submits the uninitialized se_cmd for TMR CDBs 🦋

like, one stop shop. no cap.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int target_submit_tmr (struct se_cmd *se_cmd , struct se_session
*se_sess , unsigned char *sense , u64 unpacked_lun , void
*fabric_tmr_ptr , unsigned char tm_type , gfp_t gfp , u64 tag , int
flags );

it returns an int, bestie. nine whole arguments. she's high-maintenance but she's worth it 💜

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

here's the full cast — every single one of them, no skips:

  • se_cmd — the command descriptor you're submitting. this is the main character ✨
  • se_sess — the associated se_sess for the endpoint 🌈
  • sense — pointer to the SCSI sense buffer, iykyk 👀
  • unpacked_lun — the unpacked LUN that gets referenced for struct se_lun 🎀
  • fabric_tmr_ptr — the fabric context for the TMR req, very fabric of our lives of it 🧚
  • tm_type — the Type of TM request 💫
  • gfp — gfp type for the caller (yes, the caller's gfp, respect the caller) 🌸
  • tag — the referenced task tag for TMR_ABORT_TASK 🔥
  • flags — submit cmd flags, flags are flags, slay 🚩

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

callable from all contexts.
