igb_remove_i2c(9)

💅 igb_remove_i2c(9) — Kernel API Manual, section 9 🎀

okay so bestie, picture this: you're deep in the Intel igb driver, you've been doing I2C stuff, and now it's time to leave. This page is literally the cleanup era. Manual name is igb_remove_i2c, section 9, and yes the title line up top is the whole header — I folded it in here so it didn't have to stand alone like that 😭

✨ NAME ✨

igb_remove_i2c — cleanup the I2C interface. that's it. that's the function. she tears down the I2C vibes when they're no longer needed 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void igb_remove_i2c (struct igb_adapter *adapter );

like, it returns void. nothing comes back. no cap, no return value, no drama. it just does the thing and leaves ✨

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• adapter — pointer to the adapter structure. that's your one and only input, bestie. a struct igb_adapter *, pointing at the adapter you're cleaning up after. she's the main character here 🫶

that's ninety-two cross-references, bestie. ninety-two. she's thorough 💀✨

heads up 🫶 this page is a short one — no options, no env vars, no exit statuses, no signals, no return values. literally just a function, one argument, and a lot of SEE ALSO. the way that a cleanup function has a bigger social circle than you 😭

okay and finally the cute sign-off — this one lives in ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/igb, and the page is dated October 2026. that's the source path and the date, babes, all wrapped up with a little bow 🎀 a late-2026 glow-up for a tiny cleanup function. periodt. 💖
