tb_switch_unconfigure_link(9)

💅 tb_switch_unconfigure_link(9) — Kernel API Manual 💅

🌸 NAME 🌸

tb_switch_unconfigure_link — unconfigure the link, bestie. That’s the name, no cap. 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

void tb_switch_unconfigure_link (struct tb_switch *sw );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• sw — the switch whose link is unconfigured. That’s the switch we’re doing the link-unconfigure thing to, periodt. 🫶

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so this function sets the link unconfigured. The important plot twist: sw will be disconnected if the domain exits sleep. That’s literally the documented behavior, and it’s giving “important side effect” energy. 😭

No cap: the link gets set unconfigured, and sw gets disconnected if the domain exits sleep. That’s the whole description, don’t lose it.
