💖 batadv_recv_handler_unregister(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're in the kernel docs now, and honestly? iconic. this one's a little function page, short and sweet, but it's doing important cleanup work and we're gonna appreciate her. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

batadv_recv_handler_unregister — unregister handler for packet type 🫶

so basically: you had a handler for a packet type, and now you're breaking up with it. respectfully. this is the function that does the un-registering. no cap.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void batadv_recv_handler_unregister (u8 packet_type );

look at her. void return — she gives nothing back, she just does the thing. and she takes exactly one argument, a u8 called packet_type. that's it. that's the whole vibe check. 💅

---

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• packet_type — the batadv_packettype which should no longer be handled. like, it's done, it's retired, it's not taking calls anymore. literally handing in its little handler badge. 🌸

this gem ships out of ./net/batman-adv and the doc page is dated October 2026 — so like, future-coded but make it kernel. catch you in the next manpage, mwah 🍓💖
