💖 _scsih_sas_device_remove (9) — kernel API manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so this is a page from the kernel API manual, section 9, and it's all about saying bye to a sas_device 🦋 like, removing it from the list. tiny function, big group-chat energy. let's get into it 💅

✨ NAME ✨

_scsih_sas_device_remove — remove sas_device from list.

like literally that's the whole job. remove the sas_device from the list. she's a simple queen 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void _scsih_sas_device_remove (struct MPT3SAS_ADAPTER *ioc , struct
_sas_device *sas_device );

returns void, so no return value to stress about 🫶 (yes the space before the comma is canon, don't @ me)

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

  • ioc — per adapter object 🧚
  • sas_device — the sas_device object 👑

two args, both iconic, both required 💖

🔥 CONTEXT 🔥

bestie listen up — this function will acquire ioc->sas_device_lock 🔒 that's the tea. it takes the lock. so like, plan accordingly, iykyk

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

here's the whole vibe: if sas_device is on the list, remove it and decrement its reference count 💀 that's it. that's the function. if she's on the list, she gets yeeted and her refcount goes down by one. no cap ✨

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

okay this part is LOWKEY a lot — the whole mpt3sas family reunion is invited 🙈 but we don't skip anyone in this house, so here's every single one:

that's everyone, no one left on read 🫶 anyway that's the whole page!! short and sweet, just like her 💖✨
