πŸ’… irq_get_domain_generic_chip(9) πŸ’…

okay so like, hi bestie 🌸 welcome to the Kernel API Manual, and today's main character is irq_get_domain_generic_chip β€” no cap, she's a little function with a big name and a very specific job πŸ’–


✨ NAME ✨

irq_get_domain_generic_chip β€” get a pointer to the generic chip of a hw_irq πŸŽ€

like literally, you hand her a domain and a hardware interrupt number, and she hands you back a pointer to that interrupt's generic chip. it's giving "personal assistant who knows where everything is" energy fr fr ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

struct irq_chip_generic * irq_get_domain_generic_chip (struct irq_domain
*d , unsigned int hw_irq );

that's her whole signature, exactly as written, don't come for me about the line break πŸ’€


🌈 ARGUMENTS 🌈

  • d β€” the irq domain pointer πŸ’« lowkey the map you're searching in
  • hw_irq β€” the hardware interrupt number πŸ”₯ the exact hw irq you're asking about

two args, both doing exactly what they say on the tin. iconic behavior honestly πŸ‘‘


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

first of all, she lives in the kernel file ./kernel/irq/generic-chip.c β€” that's her address, bestie 🏠

and here's the whole friend group, all of them, in order, because nobody gets left out 🫢

like yes that's seventeen of them and yes i listed every single one, we don't do "etc." around here πŸ’…βœ¨


🫢 quick reminder bestie: the synopsis is written exactly as the original has it β€” same types, same pointers, same semicolons β€” so don't go "cleaning it up" on me, mwah 😭

and that's the page! 🌟 she's from ./kernel/irq, dated October 2026, and yeah β€” the whole thing is still filed under irq_get_domain_generic_chip(9) at the bottom, periodt πŸ’–πŸŽ€πŸ¦‹
