dpsw_set_irq_enable(9)
π dpsw_set_irq_enable β set the overall interrupt state
okay so bestie, you're reading the dpsw_set_irq_enable(9) page from the Kernel API Manual β¨ β this is the one that flips the big master switch for a switch's interrupts. No cap, it's a tiny function with main-character energy π
β¨ NAME β¨
dpsw_set_irq_enable β Set overall interrupt state. that's it, that's the whole vibe π
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
int dpsw_set_irq_enable (struct fsl_mc_io *mc_io , u32 cmd_flags , u16
token , u8 irq_index , u8 en );
literally just five args and an int coming back at you, periodt πΈ
π ARGUMENTS π
mc_ioβ pointer to the MC portal's I/O object. yes, the portal, the whole access point, hand it over π«Άcmd_flagsβ command flags, and you're picking one or more ofMC_CMD_FLAG_πtokenβ the token of the DPCI object. keep it safe, it's your little ID badge πirq_indexβ the interrupt index you wanna configure. which one? that one. π₯enβ the interrupt state, and it's giving binary:enable = 1,disable = 0β
π DESCRIPTION π
so this is how GPP software gets to control when interrupts are generated π« Each interrupt can have up to 32 causes β like, 32 whole reasons for it to fire, iconic. The enable/disable control is the overall interrupt state, the big boss switch up top π
and here's the important part, bestie: if the interrupt is disabled, no causes will cause an interrupt. not one. not any of the 32. zero. the whole thing is off π so flip en with intention, okay?
π RETURN π
the original page leaves this section completely empty β no return values documented, no explanation, nothing. just vibes and a heading. π don't come for me, I'm reporting it exactly as it is.
