xfer_put(9)

💅 xfer_put(9) — Kernel API Manual, but make it a group chat 🫶

okay so bestie, welcome to xfer_put(9) from the Kernel API Manual ✨ — that's the manual section, iykyk. this one's short and sweet and honestly kind of iconic for how much it doesn't do. let's get into it 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

xfer_put — release a transmit message 💌

like, let it go. set it free. it's done its job, babes 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void xfer_put (const struct scmi_protocol_handle *ph , struct scmi_xfer
*xfer );

that's it. that's the whole signature. no return value, no drama, no nothing 😌

---

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

• ph — pointer to the SCMI protocol handle 🫶 like, which protocol are we even talking about here, you know?
• xfer — the message that was reserved by xfer_get_init 👑 so if you didn't get it from there... girl. where did you get it. (the manpage doesn't say what happens, and neither will I 🙈)

---

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

okay so this is the part where the manpage goes absolutely feral and lists everything 💀 like genuinely, the whole neighbourhood:

like I said. the whole neighbourhood. no cap 💀

---

quick vibe check bestie: xfer_get_init(9) is literally in that list, so if you're confused about where xfer came from, go read that one next 🧚 and __scmi_xfer_put(9) is right there too if you're feeling extra 🍓

and that's the whole page!! 💖 this little beauty lives under ./drivers/firmware/arm_scmi, version stamped October 2026, manual section 9, and honestly? she ate. periodt 👑✨🌸
