ntb_unregister_client(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 ntb_unregister_client(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you've been reading ntb docs for what feels like forever, and you hit this one. it's in section 9, it's a Kernel API page, and honestly? it's a short one. we love a low-effort icon ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ntb_unregister_client — unregister a client for interest in ntb devices

like, you're breaking up with the ntb subsystem. respectfully. 💔

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void ntb_unregister_client (struct ntb_client *client );

that's it. that's the whole call. no return value, no drama, it's giving void and unbothered 😌

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • client — Client context. this is your client, your main character, the one you're unregistering. hand it over and let it go 🫶

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

so here's the tea: the client gets removed from the list of clients interested in ntb devices. like, off the list. gone. not in the group chat anymore 💀

and if any ntb devices are associated with the client — meaning it's still got devices attached to it — the client will be notified to remove those devices. so it's not just a quiet exit, it gets told to clean up its stuff first. very responsible of it, honestly 🔥

no cap, that's the whole description. short and slays.

💡 friendly reminder: this page lives in <pink>section 9</pink> — kernel API territory — and the source file it's from is ./include/linux, dated October 2026. mwah, that's the sign-off bestie, go unregister that client and have a gorgeous day 💅✨🍓
