irq_bypass_u...ter_consumer(9)

✨ irq_bypass_unregister_consumer — a Kernel API Manual moment ✨

okay so bestie, we're in the Kernel API Manual today and the page is literally called irq_bypass_u...ter_consumer(9) because apparently even the manpage headers get the truncation treatment 😭 the real name is irq_bypass_unregister_consumer(9), and yes it's exactly as iconic as it sounds.

💅 NAME

irq_bypass_unregister_consumer — unregister IRQ bypass consumer

no cap, that's the whole vibe. it unregisters a consumer. we love a functional name 🫶

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS

void irq_bypass_unregister_consumer (struct irq_bypass_consumer
*consumer );

she takes one pointer and returns absolutely nothing (void), because sometimes the biggest slay is doing your job and dipping 🌸

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS

• consumer — pointer to consumer structure. that's it. that's the whole argument list. pointer to the consumer struct, hand-delivered, no notes ✨

---

👑 DESCRIPTION

Remove a previously registered IRQ consumer. literally just yeet it out of the registry 🧚

note, it's safe to call this even if registration was unsuccessful — so if the registration flopped, you can still call this and nothing bad happens, she's very forgiving 💖

Disconnect from the associated producer, if one exists. key words: if one exists. if there's no producer attached, she simply doesn't do that part. no drama, no extra chaos 🌈

• irq_bypass_register_producer(9)
• irq_bypass_unregister_producer(9)
• irq_bypass_register_consumer(9)

like a little friend group of functions fr fr, she's the unregister twin of irq_bypass_register_consumer(9) 🫶

and that's the page, bestie! 💜 this one comes to you straight from ./virt/lib and it's dated October 2026, so mark your calendars and stan a kernel API that lets you undo things safely ⭐🎀
