+Name
+====
+
+GPIO_GET_LINEINFO_UNWATCH_IOCTL - Disable watching a line for changes to its
+requested state and configuration information.
+
+Synopsis
+========
+
+.. c:macro:: GPIO_GET_LINEINFO_UNWATCH_IOCTL
+
+``int ioctl(int chip_fd, GPIO_GET_LINEINFO_UNWATCH_IOCTL, u32 *offset)``
+
+Arguments
+=========
+
+``chip_fd``
+ The file descriptor of the GPIO character device returned by `open()`.
+
+``offset``
+ The offset of the line to no longer watch.
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Remove the line from the list of lines being watched on this ``chip_fd``.
+
+This is the reverse of gpio-v2-get-lineinfo-watch-ioctl.rst (v2) and
+gpio-get-lineinfo-watch-ioctl.rst (v1).
+
+Unwatching a line that is not watched is an error (**EBUSY**).
+
+First added in 5.7.
+
+Return Value
+============
+
+On success 0.
+
+On error -1 and the ``errno`` variable is set appropriately.
+Common error codes are described in error-codes.rst.
