snd_soc_com..._exit_regmap(9)

💅 snd_soc_com..._exit_regmap — the Kernel API Manual page, bestie edition 🎀

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the Kernel API Manual, page snd_soc_com..._exit_regmap(9), and you just need to clean up after yourself. Iconic behaviour honestly. Let's get into it ✨

✨ NAME ✨

snd_soc_component_exit_regmap — the de-initializer for a component's regmap instance. It's giving "we're done here, pack it up" 🧹💖

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void snd_soc_component_exit_regmap (struct snd_soc_component *component
);

Yes bestie, it returns void. No return value, no drama, no notes. 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• component — the component whose regmap instance you're about to de-initialize. That's the one, that's the target, no cap 🎯

---

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

So what actually happens? It calls regmap_exit on the regmap instance that's associated to the component, and then it removes that regmap instance from the component. Clean break, no loose ends. 🫶

⚠️ Real talk though: this function should only be used if snd_soc_component_init_regmap is what you used to initialize the regmap instance in the first place. Mismatched init/exit? Not the vibe. Don't do it. 🙈
