✨ NAME ✨

i915_request_free_capture_list — Free a capture list

okay so bestie, this is the i915_request...capture_list(9) page from the Kernel API Manual, and yes the page title is giving “the function name got distracted halfway through,” but we move 💅. The actual function here is i915_request_free_capture_list, and its whole vibe is freeing a capture list. Iconic, lowkey straightforward, no cap.

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void i915_request_free_capture_list (struct i915_capture_list *capture
);

That’s the signature, fr fr — copy it exactly, don’t be quirky with it.

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• capture — Pointer to the first list item or NULL

So yeah, capture is either pointing at the first item in the list, or it’s literally NULL. That’s the whole argument moment. Slay. 🫶
