goodix_ts_irq_handler(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

🌸 goodix_ts_irq_handler(9) β€” from the Kernel API Manual, bestie πŸ’…

Okay so picture this: it's the Linux kernel, right, and there's a touchscreen driver just sitting there in goodix.c minding its business. And then β€” boom β€” an interrupt shows up. Who answers the door? This function. This is literally the IRQ handler, the main character of this whole page. Let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

goodix_ts_irq_handler β€” the IRQ handler. That's it, that's the whole vibe. It handles the IRQ. Iconic behaviour, no notes πŸ’–


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

irqreturn_t goodix_ts_irq_handler (int irq , void *dev_id );

She returns an irqreturn_t, she takes an int and a void *, and she absolutely ate that signature. Periodt ✨


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • irq β€” the interrupt number. Like, which interrupt is ringing the doorbell, bestie. That number. πŸ””
  • dev_id β€” a private data pointer. The driver's own little stash of info gets passed along in here, so it knows whose interrupt this actually is 🌸

πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

All the lore lives in the kernel file ./drivers/input/touchscreen/goodix.c, and honestly the friend group is stacked. Go say hi to:

iykyk β€” that's the whole touchscreen squad right there πŸ‘‘


Lowkey a whole little family reunion in that SEE ALSO list, and every single one of them is doing their part so your screen knows where your finger is. Slay 🌈
