dpmcp_close(9)
π
dpmcp_close β a Kernel API Manual moment (that's dpmcp_close(9) to you, bestie)
okay so real talk, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and this little function is lowkey iconic. it's called dpmcp_close and it's literally the "bye bestie" of control sessions. let's get into it π
β¨ NAME β¨
dpmcp_close β close the control session of the object π«Ά
like, that's it. that's the whole vibe. it closes stuff. periodt.
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int dpmcp_close (struct fsl_mc_io *mc_io , u32 cmd_flags , u16 token );
yes she takes three arguments and returns an int, no cap. copy it exactly if you're typing it out, because i am not about to let you fumble the signature π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
mc_ioβ pointer to the MC portal's I/O object. it's the doorway, the portal, the whole main character entrance β¨cmd_flagsβ command flags, and you're picking one or more of'MC_CMD_FLAG_'(note the trailing underscore, it's not a typo, it's a family of flags, iykyk)tokenβ the token of the DPMCP object. it's giving backstage pass ποΈ you need it to get in
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea β: after this function gets called, no further operations are allowed on the object without opening a new control session.
like, the door is closed. locked. not even a little peek. you want back in? run dpmcp_open(9) and start fresh, babe. that's the rule and she does not bend π
β RETURN β
ngl, this section is literally empty in the original β no return values listed, nothing, just vibes and a heading. it's giving "the void stared back" π so don't come at me for not making anything up, because i would never invent facts about a kernel function. (she returns an int, that much we know from the synopsis β¨)
π SEE ALSO π
- the kernel file
./drivers/bus/fsl-mc/dpmcp.cβ go read the source, bestie, it's right there π dpmcp_open(9)β the other half of this love story, the one that opens the session you just slammed shut πͺ
β οΈ friendly reminder that once dpmcp_close runs, there's no "oops undo" β you need a whole new control session to touch the object again. plan accordingly π
and that's the page!! π shoutout to the Kernel API Manual for hosting, to ./drivers/bus/fsl-mc for being the source, and to October 2026 for the date stamp β she's from the future, respectfully π¦β¨ mwah, see you in the next manpage bestie π
