💖 iio_simple_d...vent_handler(9) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — yes this is a real manpage title, and yes the middle of it got ate by the truncation goblins, we don't question it, we just vibe 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

iio_simple_dummy_event_handler — the girl whose whole job is spotting an event and passing it along, no cap 👑

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

irqreturn_t iio_simple_dummy_event_handler (int irq , void *private );

literally copy that exactly, spacing and all, the compiler does not care about aesthetics but I do 💅

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• irq — the irq of the event line. that's it, that's the whole description, it's giving minimalist icon 💀
• private — a pointer to the device instance state. your little bag of device goodies 👜

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so this handler is the responsible one in the group chat 😭 its job is to query the device and figure out what event actually occurred, and then to push that event towards userspace. like, find the tea, then tell everyone the tea ☕➡️💻

here's the cute part: in this case only one event occurs, so we push that directly on through with a locally grabbed timestamp 🌈 no queue, no drama, just grab the time and go ✨ periodt
