ubifs_lpt_free(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 ubifs_lpt_free β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition 🌸

Okay so bestie, we're in the ubifs_lpt_free(9) page today β€” yes, the (9) means kernel-internals section, we're deep in the kernel basement and it's iconic down here. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

ubifs_lpt_free β€” free resources owned by the LPT.

Like, it releases the stuff the LPT is holding onto. That's the whole vibe check. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

void ubifs_lpt_free (struct ubifs_info *c , int wr_only );

Returns nothing, takes two things, no drama. She's a void, she doesn't owe you a return value. 😌


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • c β€” the UBIFS file-system description object. Basically the whole personality of your filesystem in one struct. πŸ—‚οΈ
  • wr_only β€” free only resources used for writing. So if this is set, she's doing a partial cleanup, not the full send. Lowkey selective, highkey valid. ✨

πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

So the source situation is: kernel file ./fs/ubifs/lpt_commit.c β€” that's the mothership. πŸš€ And these are all her neighbors, the whole group chat fr fr:

Yeah that's a lot of friends. She's popular. It's giving main character energy. πŸ‘‘


πŸ’€ Real talk though: this is kernel-internal API, so it's not like a cute lil userland command you can just run. It's for people writing in ./fs/ubifs. Iykyk. πŸ™ˆ

And that's the page! 🌈 This lil beauty lives in ./fs/ubifs, dated October 2026, and goes by ubifs_lpt_free(9) β€” πŸŽ€ mwah, go free those resources bestie, ily πŸŽ€
