✨ NAME ✨

nfp_resource_release — release a NFP Resource handle, periodt 🎀

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void nfp_resource_release (struct nfp_resource *res );

no cap, that's the whole signature — void in, void out, she doesn't return anything, she just does 💅

✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

• res — the NFP Resource handle 🫶 like, the actual handle you're handing over so it can get released

✨ NOTE ✨

heads up bestie 🌸 this function implictly unlocks the resource handle — so like, it's doing the unlock for you behind the scenes. not me pointing out that the original spells it "implictly" 😭 anyway that's the actual note, keep it in mind!
