okay so welcome to davinci_spi_irq(9), bestie β this is the interrupt handler page for the SPI Master Controller and it's literally the moment the hardware taps you on the shoulder like "hey. something happened." π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
davinci_spi_irq β the interrupt handler for the SPI Master Controller, aka the function that picks up when the controller calls π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
irqreturn_t davinci_spi_irq (s32 irq , void *data );
like, that's the whole signature. short and iconic π
π ARGUMENTS π
irqβ the IRQ number for this SPI Master. it's the little "who's calling" tag so you know which interrupt line just lit up πdataβ the structure for the SPI Master controller,davinci_spi. this is the main character payload that gets passed through π¦
π DESCRIPTION π
so the ISR (interrupt service routine, iykyk) is gonna figure out that the interrupt arrives either for a READ command or a WRITE command. it's giving "vibe check the command first" π
according to whichever command it is, it does the appropriate action. no cap β the behavior follows the command.
then it checks the transfer length, and if it is not zero, it dispatches the transfer command again π₯ (yes, it runs it back, we love a sequel).
but if the transfer length is zero, then it indicates the COMPLETION so that the davinci_spi_bufs function can go ahead β¨ periodt, that's the handoff.
