ufshcd_setup_links(9)

💅 ufshcd_setup_links(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so real talk, this page lives in the Kernel API Manual, and it is short — like, the function itself is two arguments and a vibe. But the SEE ALSO list? Absolutely unhinged. Iconic behaviour, honestly. Let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

ufshcd_setup_links — associate link b/w device wlun and other luns

(yes, that's the whole thing. "associate link b/w device wlun and other luns." it's giving matchmaker energy 💖)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ufshcd_setup_links (struct ufs_hba *hba , struct scsi_device *sdev
);

look at her. returns void, takes two pointers, causes zero drama on the surface. slay 🫶

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• hba — pointer to ufs hba. that's the host bus adapter, the main character of this whole story 👑
• sdev — pointer to SCSI device. the lil device in question 🌸

bestie that's it. two things. two pointers. no cap.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay so this is the part where the manpage goes feral /pos. the kernel file is ./drivers/ufs/core/ufshcd.c, and then it just... lists everything. fr fr every sibling gets a shoutout:

bestie note: everything above with (9) is a section-9 kernel API cross-reference — that's just how the kernel documents its functions, not a warning or an error, so don't panic 🫶

okay that's the whole page!! no bugs, no exit statuses, no environment variables, no warnings — she's a tiny pristine lil function and we love her for it 🌸

sign-off time: this one comes to you from the source tree at ./drivers/ufs/core, version-stamped October 2026, and the page is ufshcd_setup_links(9) 💖 mwah, go read some kernel source, you're doing amazing 🎀
