✨ irq_set_default_domain ✨

Hey bestie! 🌸 So this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about irq_set_default_domain β€” like, the function that sets your go-to, fallback irq domain. Serving main character energy for your interrupt mappings, periodt. Let's get into it. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ NAME πŸŽ€

irq_set_default_domain β€” Set a "default" irq domain


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void irq_set_default_domain (struct irq_domain *domain );

🌈 ARGUMENTS 🌈

  • domain β€” the default domain pointer. Yep, that's it. That's the whole vibe. 🫢

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

Okay so, for convenience β€” and honestly, who doesn't love convenience β€” it's totally possible to set a "default" domain. And the way that works is: whenever NULL is passed to irq_create_mapping, this default domain is the one that gets used. 🌟

It makes life easier for platforms that want to manipulate a few hard coded interrupt numbers that aren't properly represented in the device-tree. Lowkey iconic of them. No cap. πŸ’€βœ¨

It's giving "fallback bestie" β€” you don't call them every time, but when you pass NULL, they show up. πŸ˜­πŸ’œ
