binder_dequeue_work(9)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the manual page for binder_dequeue_work(9) — that's the manual name, from the Kernel API Manual, and we're folding it in right here like a little name tag 🫶.

binder_dequeue_work — removes an item from the work list. Periodt. 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void binder_dequeue_work (struct binder_proc *proc , struct binder_work *work );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• proc — the binder_proc associated with the list. That's the list context, bestie.
• work — the struct binder_work to remove from the list. The actual item getting yeeted from the list.

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so this function removes the specified work item from whatever list it is on. Not me being casual — that's literally the whole vibe: wherever the work item happens to be chillin' on a list, this takes it off. 🔥

And the iconic part? It can safely be called if work is not on any list. So if it's already list-less, you're not gonna cause chaos by calling this. No cap, that's safe. ✨
