🌸 NAME 🌸

okay so bestie, this page is all about iio_triggered_event_setup β€” like, it's the function that does the Setup pollfunc_event for triggered event thing πŸ’… welcome to the Kernel API Manual, you're gonna love it here 🫢


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int iio_triggered_event_setup(struct iio_dev *indio_dev,
                              irqreturn_t (*h)(int irq, void *p),
                              irqreturn_t (*thread)(int irq, void *p));

like, that's the whole signature, no cap πŸ’–


πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • indio_dev β€” the IIO device structure, your main character struct fr 🌟
  • h β€” the function that's gonna serve as the pollfunc_event top half πŸ‘‘
  • thread β€” the function that's gonna serve as the pollfunc_event bottom half πŸ’«

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so this function is literally the ultimate combo deal: it bundles up a bunch of common tasks that you'd normally have to do by hand when you're setting up a triggered event ✨ It allocates the pollfunc_event and sets the mode so it gets used for the triggered event β€” easy peasy, slay πŸ’…

⚠️ vibe check, bestie: before you call this function, the indio_dev structure should already be completely initialized, but not yet registered. No skipping ahead πŸ™ˆ

in practice (iykyk), that means you call this function right before iio_device_register β€” like, the timing is everything πŸŽ€

and when you're done and you wanna free the resources this function allocated? you call iio_triggered_event_cleanup β€” she cleans up your mess, iconic 🌈

aaaand that's the page!! πŸ’– this little masterpiece lives under ./drivers/iio, dated October 2026, in the Kernel API Manual β€” mwah, go forth and set up those triggered events, you've so got this πŸŒΈπŸ’…βœ¨
