πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… hid_remove_all_dquirks(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so picture this: you're in the hid_remove_all_dquirks man page (that's the (9) section, kernel API club πŸŽ€), and it's literally just one job β€” wipe every runtime HID quirk out of memory. no cap, that's the whole vibe. let's get into it πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

hid_remove_all_dquirks β€” remove all runtime HID quirks from memory πŸ§ΉπŸ’–

like, all of them. every last one. gone. slay.


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void hid_remove_all_dquirks (__u16 bus );

that's it, that's the whole signature. returns void because it doesn't need to hand you anything back β€” it's a doer, not a talker πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • bus β€” the bus you wanna match against. πŸ‘€ and here's the tea: if you want all of them removed, use HID_BUS_ANY. periodt. don't be out here passing some random bus when you meant everyone πŸ™ˆ

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so what does it actually do? it frees all memory associated with dynamic quirks β€” all of it, ngl, no crumbs left behind πŸ“

and when does it run? it's called before module unload 🧚 so think of it as the cleanup crew that shows up right before the party (the module) leaves the building. main character energy for a janitor function, honestly.

lowkey important: this is the free everything function. it's doing memory management, so like… respect it. 😭
