gluebi_put_device(9)

💅 NAME 💅

gluebi_put_device — bestie, this is the one that puts an MTD device reference 🫶

So this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about releasing your grip on an MTD device. Letting go is self-care, periodt.

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void gluebi_put_device (struct mtd_info *mtd );

Yep, that's the whole call. Short, iconic, no notes. 💖

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• mtd — the MTD device description object, aka the lil struct that's the whole main character of this function 🌸

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, this function gets called every single time the MTD device is being put. Every time. Like clockwork, no cap. ⭐

The page also says it returns zero in case of success and a negative error code in case of failure — yes even though the synopsis shows void, that's literally what the manpage says, so we're saying it too. iykyk 🙈
