ssam_ssh_event_disable(9)

okay bestie, this is ssam_ssh_event_disable(9) from the Kernel API Manual — literally the “disable one SSH event” page. we’re keeping every detail and keeping it cute, periodt 💅✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

• ssam_ssh_event_disable — Disable SSH event. that’s the whole name, no cap 🫶

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature is giving “one function call and done”:

int ssam_ssh_event_disable (struct ssam_controller *ctrl , struct ssam_event_registry reg , struct ssam_event_id id , u8 flags );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• ctrl — the controller for which to disable the event. like, the main-character controller you’re doing this to 💖
• reg — the event registry describing what request to use for enabling and disabling the event. it must be same as used when enabling the event — yes, literally same, don’t switch it up 😭
• id — the event identifier. the event’s lil name tag 🎀
• flags — the event flags (likely ignored for disabling of events). so yeah, likely ignored here, but it still gets a seat at the table 🪑✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Disables the specified event on the EC. simple.

This function does not manage reference counting of enabled events, and is basically only a wrapper for the raw EC request. so don’t expect it to do your refcount bookkeeping, bestie 💀

If the specified event is already disabled, the EC will ignore this request. iconic “already off, so we move” behavior 💅

🔥 RETURN 🔥

Returns the status of the executed SAM request: zero on success and negative on direct failure. also, it returns -EPROTO if the request response indicates a failure.
