Subject: [PATCH v2 6/8] liveupdate: Auto unregister FLBs on file handler unregistration
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2026 10:16:44 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260318141637.1870220-16-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260318141637.1870220-10-pasha.tatashin@soleen.com>
To ensure that unregistration is always successful and doesn't leave
dangling resources, introduce auto-unregistration of FLBs: when a file
handler is unregistered, all FLBs associated with it are automatically
unregistered.
Introduce a new helper luo_flb_unregister_all() which unregisters all
FLBs linked to the given file handler.
