dvb_dmx_release(9)

🌸 NAME — dvb_dmx_release 🌸

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — today’s main character is dvb_dmx_release, and the official name-line vibe is:

dvb_dmx_release - releases a digital TV demux internal buffers. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void dvb_dmx_release (struct dvb_demux *demux );

literally the whole signature, no cap. 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• demux — the struct dvb_demux to be released. 🌸

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here’s the tea: the DVB core internally allocates data at demux. This routine releases those data. 🧚

heads-up, bestie: the struct itelf is not released — that’s because it can be embedded on other structs, so it stays put. 💀
