fcoe_clean_pending_queue(9)

🧚 fcoe_clean_pending_queue — the Kernel API Manual tea ☕

Ok so bestie, welcome to the fcoe_clean_pending_queue(9) page 💖 this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it's short but it does something very real: it dequeues an skb and frees it. That's the whole vibe. No cap.

✨ NAME ✨

fcoe_clean_pending_queue — dequeue an skb and free it 🫶

Literally the function's whole personality: it takes an skb off the queue and then frees it. Clean, simple, iconic behavior.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void fcoe_clean_pending_queue (struct fc_lport *lport );

So yeah, it returns void (no little gift back to you, it just does the thing) and it takes exactly one argument: a struct fc_lport * named lport. That's the whole signature, periodt.

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• lport — the local port you're dequeuing an skb on. That's your main character for this call 👑 it's the struct fc_lport * and it's where the pending queue lives, so like, don't forget to pass it fr fr.

Heads up bestie: this page is short on purpose — the original gives us no caveats, no return value, no error codes, and no environment variables, so I'm not inventing any. We keep the facts exactly as delivered 💯
