π snd_ctl_disconnect_layer(9) β from the Kernel API Manual, bestie β¨
okay so this is snd_ctl_disconnect_layer, a page straight out of the Linux Kernel API Manual, and it's short but she is important so listen up π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
snd_ctl_disconnect_layer β the girl whose whole job is disconnecting the control layer. no cap, that's the vibe π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void snd_ctl_disconnect_layer (struct snd_ctl_layer_ops *lops );
like, that's the whole signature. one function, one argument, void return. she's lowkey minimal and we respect it π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
lopsβ the operation structure. that's it. that's the argument. it's giving "one job, doing it well" energy π
π DESCRIPTION π
okay so real talk: before you call this function, the information about the tracked cards is expected to already be freed. like, that's a you problem, not hers π
β οΈ and bestie, listen β the disconnect callback is not called here. not. at. all. so don't come for her expecting callback magic, because she will not deliver it π
that's literally the whole description. she's a short queen with strong boundaries π
