ib_dereg_mr(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Welcome to ib_dereg_mr(9), straight from the Kernel API Manual! This is the page for deregistering a kernel memory region and removing it from the HCA translation table. periodt. 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int ib_dereg_mr (struct ib_mr *mr );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• mr — the memory region to deregister. That's the one we're removing from the HCA translation table. ✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Okay so ib_dereg_mr deregisters a kernel memory region and removes it from the HCA translation table. This function can fail if the memory region has memory windows bound to it. Highkey important, so don't act surprised if it bails when those windows are still attached. 😭

⚠️ NOTE ⚠️

bestie, for user mr use ib_dereg_mr_user with valid udata! 💖 This is not a drill.
