snd_usb_endpoint_free_all(9)
π snd_usb_endpoint_free_all(9) β Kernel API Manual, but make it a group chat π
okay so bestie, welcome to the snd_usb_endpoint_free_all(9) page from the Kernel API Manual. yes, it's a real function. yes, the name is a mouthful. no, we're not skipping anything. buckle up, it's gonna be so clean β¨
β¨ NAME β¨
snd_usb_endpoint_free_all β the function that frees up all the resources of an snd_usb_endpoint, and the way it says "all" is not a vibe, it's a promise, fr fr π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void snd_usb_endpoint_free_all (struct snd_usb_audio *chip );
not me giving you the exact signature character for character, because we do not gatekeep around here π«Ά note that it returns void β so don't go looking for a return value, sweetie, there simply isn't one π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
chipβ the chip. that's it. that's the whole description in the original and honestly? iconic minimalism. it's the struct snd_usb_audio *chip* you're passing in, and it's the star of the show οΏ½οΏ½
π₯ DESCRIPTION π₯
so like β this frees all endpoints and the resources that belong to them. yes, all of them. every last one. it's giving cleanup era, it's giving end-of-lifecycle main character energy π
the original text is literally "This free all endpoints and those resources" and honestly the grammar is out here living its best life, but the meaning is crystal clear: you call this, the endpoints and their resources get freed. free them. all of them. periodt π
ngl, function names with "free_all" in them deserve your full attention β you're releasing resources here, so know what you're doing before you call it, bestie π
β SEE ALSO β

./sound/usb/endpoint.cβ go read the source, it's lowkey a whole vibe π snd_usb_endpoint_implicit_feedback_sink(9)snd_usb_add_endpoint(9)snd_usb_endpoint_start(9)snd_usb_endpoint_stop(9)snd_usb_endpoint_release(9)
like the start, stop, add, release and implicit-feedback-sink siblings β we love a functional family reunion π§
okay that's the whole page, no cap, nothing skimmed, every flag-free fact present and accounted for π
and for the cute sign-off: this lil slice of documentation comes from ./sound/usb, dated October 2026 β so mark your calendars, bestie, the future is calling and it wants you to free your endpoints ππ
slay, you read the whole manpage, i'm obsessed with you β¨π
