libnvmf_config_get_hostnqn-libnvme3(2)

libnvmf_config_get_hostnqn-libnvme32

The top-level [host] host nqn.

Usage

const char * libnvmf_config_get_hostnqn (const struct libnvmf_config *config );

Arguments

config

the resolved configuration

Overview

The identity of the configuration's default persona, as written in the top-level file's [Host] section. A drop-in's persona is deliberately not reachable here: it belongs to that drop-in's own connections.

Each connection already carries the identity it is made under, but a configuration may name a persona and configure no connections at all -- a host that only connects what it discovers. This is how that identity is read.

Return

borrowed string, valid while config is alive, or NULL when the top-level file names no host NQN (the caller falls back to the system identity in /etc/nvme/hostnqn).
