💅 ubifs_remove_from_cat(9) — the Kernel API Manual glow-up 🎀

okay so bestie, this one's from the Kernel API Manual and it's lowkey a tiny little function with a very specific job. like, it's not doing a whole lot, but what it does? it eats. ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

ubifs_remove_from_cat — take LEB properties out of a category list or heap. that's it, that's the whole vibe. 🫶

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void ubifs_remove_from_cat (struct ubifs_info *c , struct ubifs_lprops
*lprops , int cat );

no return value, no drama, it just returns void and goes about its day 💅

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• c — the UBIFS file-system description object. the main character of the whole filesystem, honestly 👑
• lprops — the LEB properties you're yeeting out 🗑️
• cat — the LEB category you're removing them from. you gotta tell it which club they're leaving 💀

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

LEB properties get sorted into categories so that the find operations can go fast. like, speed. ⚡ no cap. and this function right here? it's the one that pulls a set of lprops back out of whichever category list or heap they were chilling in.

so basically: categorize = organized girlboss energy, and ubifs_remove_from_cat is the un-categorizing. periodt. ✨
