sgl_free_order(9)

🌸 sgl_free_order — free a scatterlist and its pages 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to sgl_free_order(9) from the Kernel API Manual, section 9 — yes, the kernel section, we're fancy now 👑 this one's short and sweet and it does exactly what it says on the tin: it frees a scatterlist, and it frees the pages that go with it ✨ like, cleanup era 💅

🌈 SYNOPSIS

void sgl_free_order (struct scatterlist *sgl , int order );

that's it. that's the whole vibe check. no return value, it's a void function, she just does her thing and leaves 🫶

🎀 ARGUMENTS

• sgl — the scatterlist, and bestie she can have one or more elements in her, no cap
• order — this is literally the second argument you hand to __free_pages 🔥 that's the whole job description
