okay so bestie, welcome to the ldm_frag_free(9) page 💖 this one lives in the Kernel API Manual and it is, and I cannot stress this enough, extremely short. but we're gonna treat it with the respect it deserves because it's freeing memory and that's main character behaviour.

void ldm_frag_free (struct list_head *list );

yes bestie, that's the whole signature — copy it exactly, void return, one pointer, no cap 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Free a linked list of VBLK fragments ✨

that's it. that's the sentence. it goes in, it frees the linked list of VBLK fragments, it leaves. lowkey the most efficient girl in ./block/partitions/ldm.c.
