RDMA_DESTROY_EP(3)

✨ RDMA_DESTROY_EP ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the librdmacm programmer's manual 💖 this one's short but it's important, it's giving cleanup era, it's giving closure (literally). 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

rdma_destroy_ep — release a communication identifier. that's it. that's the vibe. bye bye little id, we hardly knew ye 😭💅

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

#include <rdma/rdma_cma.h>

void rdma_destroy_ep (struct rdma_cm_id *id);

so you include the header, you call the function, and the function returns void — meaning it gives you nothing back. no return value. no little treat. no "here's how it went". it just does the thing and dips. 🫶

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

• id — the communication identifier you wanna destroy. this is the struct rdma_cm_id * that you're sending off into the sunset. 🌅 the one getting released. the main character of this whole operation, ngl.

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

Destroys the specified rdma_cm_id and all associated resources.

that's the whole thing bestie. one line. but it's so much more than one line if you think about it — everything attached to that identifier is getting yeeted along with it. all the associated resources? gone. freed. released. it's a full send. 🔥

⭐ NOTES ⭐

okay this part is the actual tea ☕ and you need to know it:

rdma_destroy_ep will automatically destroy any QP and SRQ associated with the rdma_cm_id.

like — you don't gotta do it yourself?? it handles the QP, it handles the SRQ, all of it, on its own. no cap. so don't be out here manually cleaning those up and then calling this, because that's a whole different problem bestie 💀 just let the function do its thing. it's an independent woman. 👑

fr fr, this is the "one call and everything's handled" energy — QP and SRQ included, automatically, because that's just what it does.

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

• rdma_create_ep(3) — the origin story. the making of. the before. you built it there, you dismantle it here. it's giving full circle. 🌸

and that's the page, bestie!! go forth and release your identifiers responsibly 💖✨
