STRUCT IOMMU_DESTROY(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… NAME πŸ’…

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, bestie β€” today’s main character is struct iommu_destroy(9), and its NAME vibe is literally:

struct iommu_destroy - ioctl(IOMMU_DESTROY)

that’s it, that’s the name, slay πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

here’s the exact struct, no edits, no cap:

struct iommu_destroy {
    __u32 size;
    __u32 id;
 };

🧚 Members 🧚

  • size β€” sizeof(struct iommu_destroy) β€” literally the size of this struct, periodt πŸ’…
  • id β€” the iommufd object ID to destroy. Can be any destroyable object type. πŸ¦‹

πŸ¦‹ Description πŸ¦‹

okay so the actual job is tiny but powerful: Destroy any object held within iommufd. That’s the whole description. It’s giving β€œbye bestie” energy to any object held within iommufd, and honestly? iconic. πŸ’…βœ¨
