💅 release_logical_lock(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual corner of the group chat — this is the page for release_logical_lock, and it’s lowkey a tiny cleanup icon. No cap. 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

release_logical_lock — releases the logical block lock and the flush generation lock at the end of processing a data_vio. That’s the whole vibe: end-of-processing release moment, periodt. ✨

💅 SYNOPSIS 💅

void release_logical_lock (struct vdo_completion *completion );

it returns void, so there is literally no return value to catch — just call it and move on, bestie. 💖

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• completion — the data_vio holding the lock. That’s the one, the main character, the lock-holder in question. 🫶
