π idpf_idc_dei...t_aux_device(9) β bestie edition
okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and the header's a little truncated (idpf_idc_dei...t_aux_device(9)) but the actual function it's about is idpf_idc_deinit_vport_aux_device, and we're gonna get into it β¨
π NAME π
idpf_idc_deinit_vport_aux_device β de-initialize Auxiliary Device(s), no cap π«Ά
So like, if init is the glow-up, this is the... un-glow-up? The taking-off-your-makeup-at-2am of kernel functions π It de-initializes the Auxiliary Device(s). That's the whole vibe.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void idpf_idc_deinit_vport_aux_device (struct iidc_rdma_vport_dev_info
*vdev_info );
yes it literally just takes one thing, she's low-maintenance like that π returns void too β gives you nothing back, pure generosity, main character energy π
πΈ ARGUMENTS πΈ
vdev_infoβ the IDC vport device info pointer π¦ that's it. that's the whole argument list. one (1) pointer, carrying the vport device info, and it's doing all the heavy lifting. icon behavior honestly.
π SEE ALSO π
okay bestie, buckle up, because there is a whole friend group here β the entire idpf squad shows up to the group chat:

like, the whole roster. mutuals fr fr π₯ and yes, idpf_idc_deinit_core_aux_device is her sibling β core version vs vport version, two different girls, don't mix them up π
ngl if you were looking for options, flags, return values or exit statuses... there aren't any π it's a void function with one pointer argument. she's simple. she's elegant. she ate and left no crumbs. periodt.
π and that's the page! sourced from ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/idpf, dated October 2026, and stamped with this exact header: idpf_idc_dei...t_aux_device(9). go forth and de-initialize responsibly, bestie π§ββοΈβπ
