e1000_test_msi_interrupt(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💖 e1000_test_msi_interrupt 💖

okay so bestie, gather round — this one is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about a lil function called e1000_test_msi_interrupt. She's short, she's sweet, she does one (1) thing. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

e1000_test_msi_interrupt — returns 0 for a successful test ✨

Like, that's it. That's her whole personality. She runs a test and hands you back a 0 when it goes well. iconic behaviour, no notes 💅

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int e1000_test_msi_interrupt (struct e1000_adapter *adapter );

so she returns an int (the vibe check result, basically) and takes exactly one argument. keep that signature exactly as-is, ok? character for character, we don't improvise here 🙈

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • adapter — board private struct 💜

that's the board's own private struct, fr fr. it's called private for a reason — it's the adapter's business, and you're just passing it along 🌈

⭐ DESCRIPTION ⭐

okay so the whole entire description is this:

code flow taken from tg3.c

that's it. that's the description. not me expecting a whole novel and getting a single sentence 😭 but honestly? respect. the code flow was taken from tg3.c, and that's all the manpage has to say about it. iykyk 🧚

👑 SEE ALSO 👑

first up, the source file itself:

  • Kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/netdev.c 🔥

and then the entire extended friend group — like, genuinely, the whole cast of characters. every single one, in order, because we do not skip anyone in this house:

lowkey obsessed with how many of these there are. she knows everyone 💀✨

and that's the whole page, bestie! this lil gem comes from the source ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e... — yes that's how it's written, we don't touch it — and it's dated October 2026, still serving looks. go forth and test that MSI interrupt. periodt 💅🎀🦋
