💅 irdma_cm_event_handler (9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: you're deep in the irdma RDMA driver, the connection manager (cm, for the girlies who abbreviate) has something to say, and somebody's gotta carry that message up to the cm upper layer. That somebody is irdma_cm_event_handler. It's giving messenger. It's giving main character energy. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

irdma_cm_event_handler — send event to cm upper layer 🦋

Like, that's literally it. An event happens, and this function makes sure the cm upper layer hears about it. No gatekeeping, no lost messages, periodt. 💌

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

void irdma_cm_event_handler (struct work_struct *work );

Returns void, so no "did it work tho" energy — it just does the thing. 💅

🫶 ARGUMENTS 🫶

  • work — pointer of cm event info. ✨ That's it, that's the whole argument. It's a struct work_struct * and it's carrying the cm event info with it, iykyk. Give it a little kiss on the forehead and pass it along. 😭

Ngl bestie, that's a lot of cross-references. But like, the cm code is a whole ecosystem and every single one of these is part of the lore. Go read them. All of them. 💀 Not me making you a reading list.

Sign-off time 🧚 — this iconic lil page lives in ./drivers/infiniband/hw/irdma, dated October 2026, and it's literally titled irdma_cm_event_handler(9) because that's the main character. Mwah 💖 Go send some events, bestie. Slay. 🎀
