igb_request_irq(9)

✨ igb_request_irq(9) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for igb_request_irq(9) — interrupt initialization, but make it cute 💖

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

igb_request_irq — initialize interrupts. that's it, that's the whole vibe: it gets interrupts initialized ✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

the signature, no cap:

int igb_request_irq (struct igb_adapter *adapter );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• adapter — the board private structure to initialize. that's the one you're handing over, bestie 🫶

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

It attempts to configure interrupts using the best available capabilities of the hardware and the kernel. lowkey iconic: hardware and kernel get a vibe check, and the best available capabilities are what it works with 💅
