💅 qed_ll2_release_connection(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual — yes we're literally in the kernel API manual together, hold my hand 🫶. Today's main character is qed_ll2_release_connection, and before you panic: it's a cleanup function. It's the "ok we're done here, pack your bags" era of LL2 connections. No cap.

✨ NAME ✨

qed_ll2_release_connection — releases resources allocated for LL2 connection.

Like, it's giving cleanup crew. It's giving "you don't have to go home but you can't stay here" 🧹✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void qed_ll2_release_connection (void *cxt , u8 connection_handle );

That's the whole vibe. Two args, returns nothing. Simple, iconic, ate 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • cxt — pointer to the hw-function, and the manpage is very clear that it's opaque to some 🙈 (iykyk). You just pass the pointer along, don't overthink it.
  • connection_handle — the LL2 connection's handle, which you got from qed_ll2_require_connection. Yes, that exact one. Don't be out here inventing handles, bestie 😭

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Void. Nothing. Nada. She gives you absolutely nothing back and honestly? That's her right 👑 (It does the work, it just doesn't report on it. Very mysterious. Very main character.)
