💅 batadv_tt_local_entry_release — Kernel API Manual

okay bestie, so this page is literally the batadv_tt_local_entry_release(9) manpage from the Kernel API Manual, and it is exactly the kind of tiny function that does one deeply important job. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

batadv_tt_local_entry_release — release tt_local_entry from lists and queue it for free after the rcu grace period

like, it unhooks the thing and then politely waits its turn. iconic behavior, no notes 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void batadv_tt_local_entry_release (struct kref *ref );

that's it. that's the whole function signature. one arg, void return, zero drama 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • ref — kref pointer of the batadv_tt_local_entry ✨ (yes bestie, it's the refcount handle for the local translation-table entry — that's the thing being released)

💖 SEE ALSO 💖

so this function lives in the kernel file ./net/batman-adv/translation-table.c, and the manpage lowkey hands you the entire translation-table extended universe to go read next. iykyk 👑

ngl bestie, that reading list is giving "entire semester of coursework." pace yourself, hydrate, and remember: every single one of those is a real manpage you can go open. 🌈

🎀 the cute little sign-off 🎀

this gem came to you from the source/version tag ./net/batman-adv, dated October 2026, and the title up top is batadv_tt_l...ntry_release(9) — you can also find it filed under the Kernel API Manual. slay, go free some tt_local_entry structs, and remember to wait for that RCU grace period before you touch anything 💜✨🍓
