SYNOPSIS

void kmem_cache_destroy(struct kmem_cache * cachep);

ARGUMENTS

cachep

the cache to destroy

DESCRIPTION

Remove a struct kmem_cache object from the slab cache.

It is expected this function will be called by a module when it is unloaded. This will remove the cache completely, and avoid a duplicate cache being allocated each time a module is loaded and unloaded, if the module doesn't have persistent in-kernel storage across loads and unloads.

The cache must be empty before calling this function.

The caller must guarantee that no one will allocate memory from the cache during the kmem_cache_destroy.
