bdx_rx_free_skbs(9)

💅 bdx_rx_free_skbs(9)

okay so this page is from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and it's literally the group-chat explainer for one tiny kernel function. No cap, the whole flex is in the name.

🌸 NAME

bdx_rx_free_skbs — frees and unmaps all skbs allocated for the fifo

That's it. That's the tweet. It frees and unmaps all the skbs that were allocated for the fifo, and it's giving "cleanup era" 💅.

✨ SYNOPSIS

void bdx_rx_free_skbs (struct bdx_priv *priv , struct rxf_fifo *f );

Bestie, it returns void, so there's no return value to obsess over. The spacing in that signature is exactly how the manual has it — we don't touch the code, periodt.

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• priv — NIC private structure. It's the NIC's own private little structure, iykyk.
• f — RXF fifo. Yes, the RXF fifo — the fifo in question for all this skb freeing and unmapping.
