πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

okay so settle in because this is the part where you actually have to pay attention:

If this function returns with an error, then it's possible one or more of the rings is populated (while the rest are not). like, a messy half-done situation, lowkey chaotic β€” some rings got their resources, the others are just standing there empty like 🧍

It is the callers duty to clean those orphaned rings. read that again: your job, not the function's. it doesn't clean up after itself, that's on you. no cap.

Return 0 on success, negative on failure. simple as that, slay. ⭐
