💅 rx_free_skb — it's from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Bestie, welcome to the manual page for rx_free_skb — literally right here in the Kernel API Manual, no cap. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

rx_free_skb — unmap and free skb 🦋

Okay so it's giving cleanup era, and we are obsessed: it unmaps the thing AND frees the skb. Two jobs, one icon. 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void rx_free_skb (struct hinic_rxq *rxq , struct sk_buff *skb ,
dma_addr_t dma_addr );

Returns nothing (void, main character with nothing to prove 🫶), and takes exactly three things — see below, don't skip, iykyk. 👑

---

💖 ARGUMENTS 💖

• rxq — the rx queue, bestie. That's the vibe. 🌈
• skb — the skb you want to free. Yes, that one. Let it go. 🦋
• dma_addr — the dma address of the skb. Keep it handy, it matters. ⭐

💀 Quick vibe check: it's void, so don't come looking for a return value — there literally isn't one. Unmap, free, done, periodt. ✨
