no return value, no drama, void and done ✨


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • minfo β€” the transfer info pointer. yep, the transfer-info situation, she needs it πŸ’«
  • xfer β€” the message that was reserved by ti_sci_get_one_xfer. like, the exact one you grabbed earlier. you can't just return a random one bestie 😭 it has to be the one you reserved πŸ’…

πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

so what's actually happening under the hood? this function holds a spinlock so the internal data structures stay intact and nobody's stepping on anybody's toes. integrity is the vibe check here πŸ”₯ no cap, the spinlock is the whole point β€” she locks, she does her thing, she keeps the internals safe 🧚
