🌸 NAME 🌸

fscache_end_cookie_access β€” Unpin a cache at the end of an access. like, you had your little moment with the cache, and now you're politely letting it go πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void fscache_end_cookie_access (struct fscache_cookie *cookie , enum
       fscache_access_trace why );

no cap, that's the whole signature. two args, void return, very demure, very mindful 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • cookie β€” A data file cookie πŸͺ (yes it's literally called cookie, we love that for us)
  • why β€” An indication of the circumstances of the access, for tracing πŸ‘€ so future-you knows why this happened

πŸ’œ DESCRIPTION πŸ’œ

So here's the vibe: you unpin a cache cookie after we've accessed it, and then you bring a deferred relinquishment or withdrawal state into effect. That's the main character moment fr fr β€” the access is done, the pin comes off, and any state that was waiting in the wings finally gets to step forward. ✨

And the why indicator? That one's purely for tracing purposes β€” it's the receipts, the paper trail, the iykyk of it all. πŸ”₯
