void batadv_tt_local_table_free (struct batadv_priv *bat_priv );

πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • bat_priv β€” the bat priv with all the mesh interface information πŸ‘‘ like, all of it. every little scrap of mesh interface info lives in here, no cap.

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

okay so picture this: there's a local TT hash, right? and this function is basically the group-chat admin who hits "clear all" πŸ”₯

it goes through and drops every single entry of the local TT hash, frees their references (gotta be polite, release what you take, periodt πŸ’…), and then β€” final boss move β€” it releases the hashtable itself. like, the whole table. gone. iconic.

so yeah: drop every entry β†’ free their references β†’ release the hashtable itself. cleanup arc complete ✨

ngl this is the kind of function where you really hope you don't need the table anymore, because after this it is so gone 🫢
