πŸ’… adf_vf_isr_resource_alloc(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual era

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for adf_vf_isr_resource_alloc(9) β€” yes the manual name is literally part of the title, that's just how these pages roll, we don't make the rules πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

adf_vf_isr_resource_alloc β€” the function that allocates an IRQ for an acceleration device. that's it, that's the whole job, and it does it slayfully πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int adf_vf_isr_resource_alloc (struct adf_accel_dev *accel_dev );

like, look at her. one argument, one int return. lowkey iconic 🫢 (and yes, copy it exactly like that, spaces and all β€” do not come for my formatting, the manual said so)


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • accel_dev β€” a pointer to the acceleration device. that's the whole vibe. she points at the accel device and off she goes ✨

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so what does she actually do? short version: this function allocates interrupts for the acceleration device virtual function. that's the tea β˜• the VF needs its interrupts set up, and this is the girl who handles it πŸ”₯

no extra lore, no side quests β€” just interrupt allocation for the virtual function, periodt.


πŸ‘‘ RETURN πŸ‘‘

  • 0 β€” success! we ate, everything is fine, go celebrate πŸŽ‰
  • any error code β€” something went sideways 😭 (the manual just says "error code otherwise", so if you get a non-zero back, that's your sign to go investigate, bestie β€” no cap)
