πŸ’… lpfc_delete_device_data(9) β€” like, the kernel API manual page, bestie ✨

okay so welcome to lpfc_delete_device_data, a little function from the kernel API manual, section 9 of the man pages. yes we're in the kernel docs today, put your hair up, we're going in πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

lpfc_delete_device_data β€” frees a device data structure for OAS πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void lpfc_delete_device_data (struct lpfc_hba *phba , struct
lpfc_device_data *lun_info );

that's the whole signature, no cap. it returns void, so like… it gives you nothing back and honestly that's iconic of it πŸ’…


🫢 ARGUMENTS 🫢

  • phba β€” pointer to the host bus adapter structure. that's your HBA, the main character of this whole operation πŸ‘‘
  • lun_info β€” pointer to the device data structure you want to free. this is the one getting yeeted πŸͺ¦

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so what does this routine actually do? it frees the previously allocated device data structure that you passed in. that's it. that's the whole vibe. you hand it lun_info, it does the freeing thing, done, no notes 🧚

literally its entire personality is "give me the thing, I release the thing." lowkey elegant tbh ⭐
