cdns_uart_remove(9)

💅 cdns_uart_remove(9) — the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🎀

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual (the 9 section, kernel developer stuff, iykyk) and honestly it's a short one — but every word matters, so let's go ✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

cdns_uart_remove — literally the function that gets called when the platform driver is unregistered 🫶

Think of it as the goodbye-hug handler: driver's leaving the party, and this is what runs on the way out 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void cdns_uart_remove (struct platform_device *pdev );

That's it. That's the whole signature. Returns void — no return value, no "did it work", it just does the thing and leaves 😌

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• pdev — Pointer to the platform device structure 🎀

one (1) argument, one (1) job. it's a pointer to the platform_device struct, and that's the whole vibe check on this parameter, no cap.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

okay this is the main-character part of the page, because there are so many friends in this family 👑

ngl this page is short, but that's not a bad thing — some of the most iconic functions are just "called when the platform driver is unregistered" and nothing else. simple. elegant. main character energy. periodt. 💅
