vcc_remove(9)
π NAME π
okay so this whole page is about vcc_remove β and what it does is Terminate a VCC port. that's the vibe. bestie is shutting a port down, not spinning one up. periodt.
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void vcc_remove (struct vio_dev *vdev );
one function, one argument, and it gives you nothing back (void, we'll circle back to that, don't @ me yet π).
π ARGUMENTS π
vdevβ this is aPointer to VIO device of the VCC port. so like, the pointer to the VIO device of the VCC port. that's your main character for this call π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so here's the tea: it Terminates a VCC port.
lowkey more than just "bye" though β it Sets up the teardown of TTY and VIO/LDC link between guest and primary domains. the TTY side gets torn down, the VIO/LDC link between guest and primary domains gets torn down, and vcc_remove is the thing that sets all that teardown up. it's giving cleanup era, and honestly? iconic π§Ήβ¨
not me being obsessed with how much is happening in a description that's like two sentences. anyway. that's the whole job: terminate the port, set up the teardown, done. no cap.
π₯ RETURN π₯
the page says the return is status of removal. fr fr. that's what it says.
heads up bestie: the synopsis hasvoidin front of it, and the page still listsstatus of removalhere too. i'm just telling you exactly what the manpage says β do with that information what you will π« π
β SEE ALSO β
you already know i'm gonna point you at the neighbors, so here's the whole group chat:
- the kernel file
./drivers/tty/vcc.cβ that's where the family lives π vcc_table_add(9)vcc_table_remove(9)vcc_get(9)vcc_put(9)vcc_get_ne(9)vcc_event(9)vcc_probe(9)
all of them get the (9) treatment, all of them are worth a scroll. iykyk π
a huge mwah to ./drivers/tty for bringing us this one back in October 2026, and yes the footer says vcc_remove(9) again because it simply cannot get enough of itself ππ
stay safe out there, terminate your ports responsibly, and remember: void or status of removal β the page said what it said ππ«Ά
