b43_phy_exit(9)

✨ b43_phy_exit(9) ✨

okay so this is the b43_phy_exit page from the Kernel API Manual — yes it's a section 9 manpage, yes it's about wireless drivers, and yes we're gonna get through it together 💅

---

🎀 NAME 🎀

b43_phy_exit — Cleanup PHY. that's it, that's the whole name section. it exists to clean up the PHY. iconique, concise, no notes 💖

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void b43_phy_exit(struct b43_wldev *dev);

so bestie, it returns void — meaning it hands nothing back to you, no return value, no lil treat, nothing. you call it, it does its cleanup thing, done 🦋

---

💫 ARGUMENTS 💫

• dev — *struct b43_wldev ** — and ok the original literally says -- undescribed -- for this one 😭 not me being lazy, the manpage itself never wrote a description. so: it's a pointer to a struct b43_wldev, it's called dev, and that's genuinely all the docs give us. no cap, that's the whole argument section 🙈
