STRUCT TI_SCI_MSG_REQ_PROC_RELEASE(9)

👑 struct ti_sci_msg_req_proc_release — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about struct ti_sci_msg_req_proc_release — the little message struct you send when you want a processor to be, like, let go. free. released into the world 🦋

---

✨ NAME ✨

struct ti_sci_msg_req_proc_release — Release a processor. that's it, that's the whole vibe. it's giving "letting go" energy 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

here's the whole shape of it, no cap:

struct ti_sci_msg_req_proc_release {
    struct ti_sci_msg_hdr hdr;
    u8 processor_id;
 };

like, that's genuinely it. two fields. she's simple, she's iconic, she does her job 🎀

---

🎀 Members 🎀

• hdr — Generic Header. the standard little intro every one of these messages shows up with, iykyk.
• processor_id — ID of processor being released. literally just which processor we're setting free 🔥 it's a u8, so keep it cute and in range.

---

💜 Description 💜

okay so the tea ☕ — the request type for this one is TI_SCI_MSG_PROC_RELEASE, and the response you get back is a generic ACK/NACK message. so like, yes/no, slay/fail, that's the whole reply. no extra lore, no bonus data, just vibes and a verdict 🫶

🧚 friendly reminder: the header is the generic one (struct ti_sci_msg_hdr), and the whole request is literally just that header plus one u8. don't overthink her.

okay that's the whole page, ily, go release some processors responsibly 💖 this was struct ti_sc...proc_release(9) from ./drivers/firmware, dated October 2026, and she ate. periodt. 👑⭐
