velocity_close(9)

💅 velocity_close(9) — bestie edition 💅

okay so this is the Kernel API Manual page for velocity_close(9), and it's genuinely just the close adapter callback. no cap, it's giving "the network layer is wrapping things up" energy. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

velocity_close — close adapter callback. periodt. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int velocity_close (struct net_device *dev );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• dev — network device. that's the whole argument, bestie. 👑

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Callback from the network layer when the velocity is being deactivated by the network layer. literally that's it: the network layer deactivates velocity, and this callback is what gets called. no extra lore, iykyk. 💅

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥
