💅 media_request_unlock_for_access(9) — bestie edition 💅

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, babes 🌸 this one's a tiny little function but she's important, and honestly? she's giving "one line of code, whole lot of responsibility" energy. let's get into it ✨

🌈 NAME 🌈

media_request_unlock_for_access — she unlocks a request that was previously locked for access 🔓💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void media_request_unlock_for_access (struct media_request *req );

that's it. that's the whole signature. no return value, no drama, just vibes and a void 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • req — the media request 💫 (yes that's the whole description, she's a woman of few words and we respect that)

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so here's the tea ☕: this function unlocks a request that you had previously locked using media_request_lock_for_access. that's it. that's the whole lore. lock her up with the one function, let her out with this one, keep the pair together or you're gonna have a bad time 😭

no cap, these two are a matched set — if you locked it, you unlock it. don't leave a request hanging, that's not main character energy 💀
