# dev\_remove\_offload(9)

remove packet offload handler

## NAME

dev\_remove\_offload - remove packet offload handler

## SYNOPSIS

**void dev\_remove\_offload(struct packet\_offload \*** *po***);**

## ARGUMENTS

*po*

packet offload declaration

## DESCRIPTION

Remove a packet offload handler that was previously added to the kernel offload handlers by **dev\_add\_offload**. The passed offload\_type is removed from the kernel lists and can be freed or reused once this function returns.

This call sleeps to guarantee that no CPU is looking at the packet type after return.
