✨ pm_qos_flags_remove_req ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual and honestly it's giving "small function, big responsibility" energy πŸ’… like yeah it's void, yeah it takes two pointers, but it's doing real work in the power-management group chat πŸ”₯


🌸 NAME 🌸

pm_qos_flags_remove_req β€” remove a device PM QoS flags request. literally that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸŽ€


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void pm_qos_flags_remove_req(struct pm_qos_flags *pqf,
                             struct pm_qos_flags_request *req);

ok so it returns void, meaning it hands you back absolutely nothing β€” no exit code, no "did it work", no little receipt 😭 it just does the thing and dips. iconic behavior ngl πŸ‘‘


πŸ’– ARGUMENTS πŸ’–

  • pqf β€” the device PM QoS flags set that you're removing the request from. think of it as the group chat you're about to leave 🫢
  • req β€” the request you're removing from that set. this is you hitting "leave chat" fr fr πŸ™ˆ

that's two arguments. two. and honestly? slay πŸ’…

ok tiny reminder my love: this page lives in ./kernel/power and it's dated October 2026, so if you're reading this from the future... hi, how's the kernel? πŸ‘‘

anyway that's the whole page β€” go forth, remove that request, and remember: void means no drama, no return value, just vibes πŸ’œπŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ
