sci_remote_..._clear_group(9)
π sci_remote_..._clear_group(9) β from the Kernel API Manual, bestie
Okay so picture this: you're deep in the kernel, you've got a remote node table, and one of its slots has got to go. That's this page. It's from the Kernel API Manual, the page is named sci_remote_..._clear_group(9), and it's lowkey one tiny function doing one tiny job. Iconic behaviour, honestly. π
β¨ NAME β¨
sci_remote_node_table_clear_group β and yes, the description after the dash is literally empty in the original. Not me leaving it blank, it came that way. A mysterious queen. π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void sci_remote_node_table_clear_group (struct sci_remote_node_table
*remote_node_table , u32 group_index );
She returns void, she takes two args, she gets straight to business. No notes. π₯
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
remote_node_tableβ the remote node table you're clearing a slot out of. This is the table, the main character. You hand her the whole thing.group_indexβ the index of the slot that's getting cleared. Point at the one you want gone, bestie. π«Ά
π DESCRIPTION π
So the way that this works is: this method clears the entire table slot at the slot index you specified. Whole slot. Not part of it. Entire. π§Ήβ¨
And then the return situation: none. That's it, that's the whole note. void function, none back, no surprises, no drama, no cap. π

Ngl there's not much else on this page β no ENVIRONMENT, no EXIT STATUS, no BUGS, no warnings, nothing spicy. It's a short one and honestly? She ate and left no crumbs. π
Sign-off time, bestie πΈ β this little beauty ships from ./drivers/scsi/isci, dated October 2026, and it's filed under sci_remote_..._clear_group(9). Mwah. ππ
