mon_put_kn_priv(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… mon_put_kn_priv(9) πŸ’…

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, that's the manual name, we're doing this properly. this one's a kernel function page, section 9, and honestly? it's a lil shortie but she's important. let's get into it ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

mon_put_kn_priv β€” frees, like, all the allocated mon_data structures. every single one. no cap. πŸ§ΉπŸ’–


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

void mon_put_kn_priv (void );

that's the whole signature, bestie. void in, void out. she's simple, she's clean, she's iconic.


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • void β€” literally no arguments. zero. nada. nothing to pass in, nothing to worry about. take a breath, you're doing great 🫢

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

so here's the vibe check: mon_put_kn_priv gets called when the resctrl file system is unmounted. that's it, that's the moment. it's the cleanup era β€” the allocated mon_data structures get freed and everything gets to go home. ✨

lowkey a main character moment for housekeeping, tbh. πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

okay so these are the friends in the group chat β€” all the related bits, listed exactly as the page gives them. the kernel file itself lives at ./fs/resctrl/rdtgroup.c, and here's the whole crew:


πŸ’€ reminder bestie: this is kernel code, so it's not like, a suggestion page. read the source, ./fs/resctrl/rdtgroup.c, before you go touching things. iykyk πŸ™ˆ

and that's a wrap on this one! 🌈 the page comes from the source path ./fs/resctrl and she's dated October 2026 β€” so jot that down, and remember us fondly whenever you unmount that resctrl filesystem. stay slay, stay free of leaked mon_data structs. πŸ“πŸ¦‹βœ¨
