drm_connect...unregistered(9)

💖 drm_connect...unregistered(9) 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes that's the manual name, and yes we're doing this, it's giving "kernel docs but make it cute" ✨ this one's all about drm_connector_is_unregistered, and honestly? a tiny little function with a big "is it or isn't it" vibe check energy 🦋

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

drm_connector_is_unregistered — has the connector been unregistered from userspace?

like, literally just: did this connector get un-registered from userspace or not 👀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

bool drm_connector_is_unregistered (struct drm_connector *connector );

bestie it returns a bool and takes exactly one (1) argument, she's low maintenance 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• connector — a DRM connector 🫶 that's the whole vibe, one connector, that's who we're checking on

---

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

so what does she actually do? she checks whether or not connector has been unregistered from userspace. that's it. that's the whole function. highkey iconic for how focused it is 👑

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

okay here's the tea ☕ she returns:

• True if the connector was unregistered 💀
• false if the connector is registered, or has not yet been registered with userspace 🌸

so like — both of those "no" cases live in the same false bucket, no cap, don't get it twisted 🙈

and that's the page, bestie 🫶 mwah 💋 — this little number lives in ./include/drm, dated October 2026, and it's filed under drm_connect...unregistered(9) because apparently even manpage headers get the truncated-name treatment 😭 slay anyway 💅
