wx_ptp_suspend(9)

💅 wx_ptp_suspend — the manual page, but make it make sense

okay so real talk, this page is from the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and bestie it's a tiny one — but tiny ≠ skippable, so let's go 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

wx_ptp_suspend — stop ptp work items. that's it. that's the whole gig. 🎀

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void wx_ptp_suspend (struct wx *wx );

literally one line, no return value, no drama. ✨

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• wx — pointer to wx struct. that's the whole description, i'm not making it deeper than it is 💀

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's what's tea: this function suspends ptp activity, and it prevents more work from being generated — like it puts the little worker bees on pause so nothing new spawns 👑

but and this is the important part — it does not destroy the clock device. the clock stays alive, untouched, just vibing. so don't go thinking this is a teardown, because it is not. it's a pause button, not a delete key 🙈

no cap on this one: suspend ≠ destroy. keep that distinction in your head or you're gonna be confused later, i promise 😭
