✨ power_supply_unregister(9) ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual</> πŸ’… this one is a kernel function, and it's honestly so straightforward, like the cleanup era of your power supply's life πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

power_supply_unregister β€” Remove this power supply from system 🫢 like, bye babe, you're out of the system now ✨


⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void power_supply_unregister (struct power_supply *psy );

that's it, that's the whole vibe check πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • psy β€” Pointer to power supply to unregister πŸ‘‘ literally just a pointer to the power supply you're kicking out of the system, no cap

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

So the tea πŸ“: this function removes this power supply from the system. That's the whole main character moment ✨

And about the memory situation β€” the resources of the power supply get freed either here or on the last power_supply_put call. so it's giving "cleanup happens now, or whenever the last put happens" πŸ’€ no leak drama, it's handled, iykyk 🧚

lowkey important detail bestie: it's not always freed right here β€” sometimes it waits for that last power_supply_put call. don't forget that part!! πŸ™ˆ
