iio_simple_dummy_trigger_h(9)
β¨ iio_simple_dummy_trigger_h(9) β the kernel API manual, but make it make sense β¨
okay so bestie, welcome to the iio_simple_dummy_trigger_h page from the Kernel API Manual π
this one's short and sweet and honestly kind of the main character of the buffered capture saga π
πΈ NAME πΈ
iio_simple_dummy_trigger_h β literally the trigger handler function π that's it, that's the whole name, no cap.
π¦ SYNOPSIS π¦
irqreturn_t iio_simple_dummy_trigger_h (int irq , void *p );
copy it exactly like that, she's precise π
π ARGUMENTS π
irqβ the interrupt number π₯ that's the whole vibe of this one, it's just the irq number, periodt.pβ private data π«Ά and ngl it's always a pointer to the poll func. always. like clockwork.
π§ DESCRIPTION π§
so this is the guts of buffered capture π the actual inner workings, the whole reason we're here.
when a trigger event goes down, if the pollfunc is attached, this handler gets called as a threaded interrupt β which, important detail bestie, means it may sleep π so don't be out here assuming it's all fast and non-blocking, iykyk.
its whole job? grabbing data from the device and pushing it into the associated buffer π that's the assignment, and it ate π₯

π reminder: threaded interrupt = may sleep. do not forget, bestie, this is not a drill π«Ά
alright that's the whole page πΈ it lives in ./drivers/iio/dummy, dated October 2026, and it's the iio_simple_dummy_trigger_h(9) entry from the Kernel API Manual β mwah, go forth and buffer πβ¨
