serdev_device_put(9)

💅 serdev_device_put 💅

ok so like, welcome to the Kernel API Manual bestie 🫶 this one's short and sweet and honestly kind of a vibe. it's giving "small but important" energy, and you're gonna get it in like ten seconds fr fr.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

serdev_device_put — decrement serdev device refcount 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void serdev_device_put (struct serdev_device *serdev );

no cap, that's the whole thing. she's tiny. she's iconic. 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• serdev — the serdev device. that's it, that's the whole argument 🦋 literally just hand her the device and she does her little refcount decrement thing.

---

💀 SEE ALSO 💀

ok so if you wanna go down the rabbit hole (and you should, bestie, the lore is deep), here's the whole friend group 👯‍♀️:

• Kernel file ./include/linux/serdev.h
• struct serdev_device_ops(9)
• struct serdev_device(9)
• struct serdev_device_driver(9)
• struct serdev_controller(9)
• serdev_controller_put(9)
• serdev_device_driver_unregister(9)

like, serdev_controller_put(9) is literally her sibling, same energy, different struct. iykyk 💅

bestie reminder: this is a decrement of the refcount, so please don't be out here dropping references you never took, okay? 🙈 match your gets with your puts, that's the whole rule, periodt.

and that's the page!! 🎀 source vibes come from ./include/linux, and this little queen was stamped October 2026 in the Kernel API Manual. go forth and decrement responsibly, mwah 💋✨🌈🍓
