ne_pci_dev_...nclave_entry(9)

💅 NAME

okay so bestie, welcome to ne_pci_dev_...nclave_entry(9) from the Kernel API Manual 🫶 — yes that title is a whole vibe, but the function we're actually talking about is ne_pci_dev_remove_enclave_entry, and it's here to remove the enclave entry from the data structure that is part of the NE PCI device private data. no cap, that's the whole gig ✨.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature is literally this, don't come for me:

void ne_pci_dev_remove_enclave_entry (struct ne_enclave *ne_enclave ,
       struct ne_pci_dev *ne_pci_dev );

see that void? it's giving "returns nothing," periodt 💅.

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

• ne_enclave — private data associated with the current enclave. it's the current enclave's lil private-data situation 💖.
• ne_pci_dev — private data associated with the PCI device. yes, the PCI device's own private data, iconic 🎀.

🔒 CONTEXT 🔒

process context, bb 🦋. this function is called with the ne_pci_dev enclave mutex held — so yeah, the mutex is already locked when this runs, keep that energy 🔥.
