devres_remove_group(9)

💅 devres_remove_group(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition

okay so this is devres_remove_group(9), straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the "yeet the group" button for devres. no cap. 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

devres_remove_group — remove a devres group 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void devres_remove_group (struct device *dev , void *id );

that's it. that's the whole signature. void, so it gives nothing back — it just does. main character energy fr fr.

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• dev — the device you're removing the group for 🫶
• id — the ID of the target group, and yes it can be NULL. it's allowed to be nothing. we love a flexible icon.

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So what it does: it removes the group identified by id. that's the whole vibe check. 🧚

And if id is NULL? Then the latest open group gets selected. automatically. no notes. ⭐

🚨 important caveat, don't skip this: removing a group doesn't affect any other resources. it's not a purge, it's not a rampage, it's just that one group. other resources stay unbothered, living their lives. 💀
