π kunit_kfree β Kernel API Manual β¨
okay so bestie, this is kunit_kfree(9) from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly it's giving "the cleanup crew but make it KUnit" π§Ήπ Sit down, grab a boba, and let me walk you through it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
kunit_kfree β it's literally like kfree except for allocations managed by KUnit π no cap, that's the whole vibe.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void kunit_kfree (struct kunit *test , const void *ptr );
Look at that signature, she's iconic π
π ARGUMENTS π
testβ the test case to which the resource belongs π§ this is the homegirl that owns the allocation, keep track of her fr frptrβ the memory allocation to free ποΈ the thing you're yeeting back into the void
π¦ SEE ALSO π¦
okay so this list is LONG and I'm obsessed, it's the whole KUnit extended universe πβ every single one, no skips:
