snd_ac97_con...r_unregister(9)

💅 snd_ac97_con...r_unregister(9) 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes that's the whole manual name, and yes this page is about exactly one function, but it's a baddie of a function so let's go 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

snd_ac97_controller_unregister — unregister an ac97 controller 💫

like, it takes the controller you already signed up and... un-signs it up. reverse slay. the un-registration era 🔥

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void snd_ac97_controller_unregister (struct ac97_controller *ac97_ctrl
);

not me showing you the exact signature with the exact line break, because we do not edit the source here 😭 copy it character for character, bestie, that's the vibe check 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ac97_ctrl — the device previously provided to ac97_controller_register ✨ iykyk — it's the same pointer you handed over last time, so don't try to be cute and invent a new one 🙈

---

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

• Kernel file ./sound/ac97/bus.c 👑 (the actual home turf of all this)
• snd_ac97_codec_driver_register(9)
• snd_ac97_codec_driver_unregister(9)
• snd_ac97_controller_register(9) — the ones who put it in, and the rest of the family 🧚

---

lowkey a reminder: this is the *un*register half of the pair. snd_ac97_controller_register(9) is the one that did the original registration, and this page is literally described as unregistering "an ac97 controller" — that's the whole story, no extra lore 🔥

---

and that's the page, bestie 💖 this little gem lives under ./sound/ac97 and the manual is dated October 2026 — iconic, timeless, main character energy 👑⭐ see u in the kernel tree fr fr 🍓
