💖 NAME

okay so bestie, welcome to the nilfs_palloc...t_free_entry(9) page from the Kernel API Manual ✨. The function living here is nilfs_palloc_commit_free_entry, and its whole gig is literally to finish deallocating a persistent object. That’s the vibe. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS

void nilfs_palloc_commit_free_entry (struct inode *inode , struct nilfs_palloc_req *req );

🫶 ARGUMENTS

• inode — the inode of the metadata file that’s using this allocator. like, the home base for the allocator 🏡
• req — the nilfs_palloc_req structure exchanged for the removal. the little paperwork handoff for the deallocation, y’know? 📄
