✨ NAME ✨

tipc_publ_purge — remove publication associated with a failed node 💔

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void tipc_publ_purge (struct net *net , struct publication *p , u32 addr
);

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• p — the publication to remove. the main character being yeeted 💅
• addr — failed node's address. yep, the address of the node that flopped 😭

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the vibe: this function is invoked for each publication issued by a newly failed node. that's the whole call-every-time situation. then it removes the publication structure from the name table & deletes it. clean, iconic, done. 🧹✨
