💅 free_rq_skb_arr(9)

okay so real talk, this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual and it's honestly kind of a cute lil one — no cap, it's short and it does exactly one job. bestie, it's giving "small but mighty." 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

free_rq_skb_arr — frees the rq array for saved skb 👑

like, it's the cleanup girlie. when the saved skb array for an rq needs to go, this is who you call. periodt.

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void free_rq_skb_arr (struct hinic_rq *rq );

that's it. that's the whole vibe. one function, one argument, returns void because it's not here to give you anything back — it's here to free things 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rq — the HW Receive Queue. yep, the hardware receive queue itself, handing over its rq array so it can be freed. that's the whole ask 🫶
