vmw_validation_unref_lists(9) — Kernel API Manual 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual entry for vmw_validation_unref_lists(9). this one is literally about unregistering previously registered buffer object and resources, and she has main character energy in the cleanup arc. no cap. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

vmw_validation_unref_lists — Unregister previously registered buffer object and resources. that's the whole assignment, and she ate. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void vmw_validation_unref_lists (struct vmw_validation_context *ctx );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• ctx — The validation context. yes, that's the only argument, and she's giving “just pass the context, bestie.” 🫶

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

so the vibe check here is simple: this function may cause buffer object- and resource destructors to be invoked. heads up, that's a real note from the page, not me being dramatic. 💀

note: this function may cause buffer object- and resource destructors to be invoked.

not me calling this and accidentally summoning destructor behavior — iykyk. 🙈 but fr fr, that's the caveat, so keep it in mind.
