DMMP_MPATH_ARRAY_FREE(3)
π dmmp_mpath_array_free β freeing your mpath array, bestie π
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 π 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 β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
dmmp_mpath_array_free β free that 'struct dmmp_mpath' pointer array, periodt π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
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 π
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
dmmp_mpsβ the pointer of that'struct dmmp_mpath'array. it's the pointer to the array of pointers, iykyk π«Άdmmp_mp_countβ auint32_t, and it's literally just the size of the'dmmp_mps'pointer array. the headcount. the vibes census π
π DESCRIPTION π
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. π
and listen β she is extremely forgiving:
- if the
'dmmp_mps'pointer you hand her isNULLβ she does nothing. no drama. no crash. π - if
dmmp_mp_count == 0β she also does nothing. she's not gonna sit there counting zero things, she has a life. π
so basically: if there's nothing to free, she simply does not. iconic behaviour fr fr β¨
β RETURN β
void β that's it. nothing comes back. no value, no error, no little note. she ate and left no crumbs π
and that's the whole page, bestie!! π this was dmmp_mpath_array_free, living in the Device Mapper Multipath API - libdmmp Manual, dated June 2025 and sitting in section dmmp_...y_free(3). go free your arrays responsibly, love u, bye πβ¨π
