irq_bypass_r...ter_consumer(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ this page is all about irq_bypass_register_consumer(9) — and yeah, the header does that lil truncation thing and shows it as irq_bypass_r...ter_consumer(9), we love a mysterious ellipsis moment 💅. no cap, it's kernel API business, but we're gonna get through it together.

🌸 NAME 🌸

irq_bypass_register_consumer — register IRQ bypass consumer

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

int irq_bypass_register_consumer (struct irq_bypass_consumer *consumer ,
       struct eventfd_ctx *eventfd );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • consumer — pointer to the consumer structure. literally a pointer, bestie 🫶
  • eventfd — pointer to the eventfd context associated with the consumer. yes, that eventfd 💖

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so here's the vibe: irq_bypass_register_consumer() adds the provided IRQ consumer to the set of consumers, and connects it with the producer that has a matching eventfd — but only if one exists. that's the whole move. no extra lore, no hidden side quest ✨
