πŸ’– dmmp_mpath_array_free β€” freeing your mpath array, bestie πŸ’–

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Device Mapper Multipath API β€” that's the libdmmp Manual if you're keeping track πŸŽ€ β€” and it's genuinely one of the chillest functions you will ever meet. no cap. it frees stuff, it doesn't complain, it doesn't return anything. it's giving no thoughts, just cleanup ✨


✨ NAME ✨

dmmp_mpath_array_free β€” free that 'struct dmmp_mpath' pointer array, periodt πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void dmmp_mpath_array_free (struct dmmp_mpath **dmmp_mps, uint32_t
dmmp_mp_count);
notice the void up front? yeah. she returns nothing. she just does her little job and leaves. main character energy, honestly πŸ‘‘

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • dmmp_mps β€” the pointer of that 'struct dmmp_mpath' array. it's the pointer to the array of pointers, iykyk 🫢
  • dmmp_mp_count β€” a uint32_t, and it's literally just the size of the 'dmmp_mps' pointer array. the headcount. the vibes census πŸ“‹

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

okay bestie here's the whole tea: this function frees the 'dmmp_mps' pointer array that was generated by dmmp_mpath_array_get. so if you got it from there, this is where it goes to rest. 🌈

and listen β€” she is extremely forgiving:

  • if the 'dmmp_mps' pointer you hand her is NULL β†’ she does nothing. no drama. no crash. πŸ™ˆ
  • if dmmp_mp_count == 0 β†’ she also does nothing. she's not gonna sit there counting zero things, she has a life. πŸ’€

so basically: if there's nothing to free, she simply does not. iconic behaviour fr fr ✨


⭐ RETURN ⭐

void β€” that's it. nothing comes back. no value, no error, no little note. she ate and left no crumbs πŸ“
