snd_hdac_ext...evice_remove(9)

💖 NAME 💖

snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_remove — bestie, this is the one that removes your HD-audio extended codec base devices 🎀

So this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's short, sweet, and honestly kind of iconic in how little it needs to say. No cap. ✨

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_remove (struct hdac_bus *bus );

Yeah that's the whole thing. void return, so it hands nothing back to you — it just does the thing and dips 💅

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• bus — the pointer to HDAC bus object. That's it. That's the whole argument list. Give it your bus pointer and it'll handle the rest, periodt ✨

🎀 SEE ALSO 🎀

• The kernel file ./sound/hda/core/ext/bus.c — this is where the actual magic lives, go read it iykyk 🧚
• snd_hdac_ext_bus_init(9) — the setup bestie, the beginning of the story
• snd_hdac_ext_bus_exit(9) — the goodbye one 😭
• snd_hda_ext_driver_register(9) — registering, slay
• snd_hda_ext_driver_unregister(9) — un-registering, also slay

Heads up bestie: snd_hdac_ext_bus_device_remove(9) and snd_hdac_ext_bus_exit(9) are literally right there in SEE ALSO together — read all of them before you go poking at bus teardown fr fr 🫶

Okay and like, that's genuinely the whole page — the manpage said what it said and it said it with its whole chest 👑

💜 this lil page shipped out of ./sound/hda/core/ext back in October 2026, on the snd_hdac_ext...evice_remove(9) page of the Kernel API Manual. Mwah. Go remove some devices, queen 🔥💅
