cgroup_migrate_finish(9)
πΈ cgroup_migrate_finish(9) πΈ
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β¨ β today's main character is cgroup_migrate_finish(9), and honestly? she's the clean-up queen. the "we're done here, tidy up" moment. the one who turns the lights off after the party π
β¨ NAME β¨
cgroup_migrate_finish β cleanup after attach π
so like, you did the whole migration thing, and now somebody's gotta do the dishes. that's her. that's the job. no cap.
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
void cgroup_migrate_finish (struct cgroup_mgctx *mgctx );
returns void, so no "did it work" report card β she just does the thing and dips π
π ARGUMENTS π
mgctxβ the migration context π like, the lil bag of holding that carries everything about the migration you just did. she needs it to know what to undo.
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so here's the tea: cgroup_migrate_finish undoes cgroup_migrate_add_src and cgroup_migrate_prepare_dst. that's it, that's the whole vibe β she's the reverse button π
and if you're sitting there like "wait, what did those two even do tho" β the manpage is literally telling you to go read those functions for the details, bestie. it's giving "read the room, read the source." iykyk πβ¨
lowkey important: she's cleanup, not magic. the source page says the specifics live incgroup_migrate_add_srcandcgroup_migrate_prepare_dst, so don't come for her for the fine print π
