typec_retimer_unregister(9)

💅 typec_retimer_unregister(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie 🎀

okay so real talk, this one's a little send-off page. it's typec_retimer_unregister, and it lives in the Kernel API Manual (yes, that's the manual name, we're being official today ✨). think of it as the "bye babe" to typec_retimer_register's "heyyy 👋". no cap, it's short, but it's important, so let's get into it 🦋

🌸 NAME 🌸

typec_retimer_unregister — literally just unregistering a retimer device. that's it, that's the vibe 💅

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void typec_retimer_unregister (struct typec_retimer *retimer );

it returns void, meaning it gives you nothing back — not even a little status code, so don't go looking for one 🙈

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• retimer — a USB Type-C Connector retimer. that's your girl, the one you're about to unregister 🫶

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

unregisters a retimer that was registered with typec_retimer_register. that's the whole plot 😭 like, it's giving "closing the loop", it's giving "cleanup era". you registered it, now you're sending it off. iconic behaviour tbh 👑

ngl, this is the counterpart call, so if you never called typec_retimer_register in the first place, you're doing unregister wrong bestie 💀
