πŸ’« remove_buds(9) πŸ’«

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil function page from the UBIFS world and it's honestly shorter than my attention span, so let's go 🫢


🌸 NAME 🌸

remove_buds β€” remove used buds. that's it. that's the whole vibe. used buds get removed πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void remove_buds (struct ubifs_info *c );

like, it returns nothing (void), takes one pointer, and does its thing. no cap ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • c β€” the UBIFS file-system description object πŸ’– that's the whole cast, one (1) single argument, main character energy fr fr

πŸ”₯ DESCRIPTION πŸ”₯

so what does it actually do? remove_buds removes the use buds from the buds tree 🌈 literally that's the job.

but β€” and this is the important part, don't @ me β€” it does not remove the buds which are pointed to by journal heads πŸ™ˆ those ones are staying, bestie. they're protected. not touching them. periodt.

ngl this is one of those "do exactly one thing and nothing else" functions and we respect her for it πŸ‘‘
