okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this one's a lil struct page and honestly it's giving "backstage pass to the pipe-closing machinery" πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

struct ipc_mem_msg_close_pipe β€” the message structure for close pipe 🫢

like, literally the little packet-shaped vessel that carries a "close this pipe pls" request. no cap, that's the whole vibe πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

struct ipc_mem_msg_close_pipe {
    __le32 reserved1[2];
    __le16 reserved2;
    u8 pipe_nr;
    u8 type_of_message;
    __le32 reserved3;
    __le32 reserved4;
    __le32 completion_status;
 };
