💅 dvb_ringbuffer_flush(9) 💅

hey bestie!! welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a tiny little diva of a function and honestly? she's iconic for it. no cap.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

dvb_ringbuffer_flush — the one that flushes the buffer 🫧

like, that's it. that's the whole job. she flushes. she's the flush girly. periodt.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void dvb_ringbuffer_flush (struct dvb_ringbuffer *rbuf );

ok so you call her exactly like that, and she gives you back nothing — that void is giving "i do the thing and i don't need to report back to you" main character energy 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• rbuf — pointer to a struct dvb_ringbuffer 🦋 that's your ring buffer bestie right there. hand her over and let the flush happen.

💀 reminder that the signature is void dvb_ringbuffer_flush (struct dvb_ringbuffer *rbuf ); — pointer in, nothing out. don't go expecting a return value from her, she doesn't do that 🙈
