rio_dev_put(9)

💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for rio_dev_put(9) — and it's literally about releasing a use of the RIO device structure. slay, let's go 🦋

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void rio_dev_put (struct rio_dev *rdev );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• rdev — the RIO device being disconnected. that's the one you're handing over, periodt 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the vibe: you must call this when a user of a device is finished with it. no skipping, no "I'll do it later" — it's giving required cleanup energy ✨

and when the last user of the device calls this function, the memory of the device is freed. that's the main character moment: final user out, memory gets freed 🫶
