💅 ixgbe_intr(9) — Kernel API Manual 🎀

okay so real talk, this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and it's about the ixgbe driver. Sit down bestie, this one's short but it's important. 💖

✨ NAME ✨

ixgbe_intr — the legacy mode Interrupt Handler. that's it, that's the whole vibe. she's the interrupt handler, she's in legacy mode, she's serving. 👑

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

irqreturn_t ixgbe_intr (int irq , void *data );

like, look at her. returns an irqreturn_t, takes an int and a void *. chef's kiss. 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • irq — the interrupt number. literally just the number of the interrupt, that's the whole thing. 🔢
  • data — a pointer to a network interface device structure. yes bestie, that structure, the netdev one. she's holding the whole device in there. 💀

💜 SEE ALSO 💜

first up, the source file where the actual code lives, no cap:

./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ixgbe/ixgbe_main.c

and then... okay. deep breath. the cross-reference list is long long. like, scroll-for-a-while long. but every single one of these is a real page and I refuse to skip a single one of them, so here we go, in the order the manpage gave them to me: 🧚

ngl that's a whole lot of cross-references, but they're all valid pages and every single one got to shine. iykyk. ✨

🎀 sign-off 🎀

mkay so the footer says the source is ./drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i... — and yeah, it's literally cut off mid-path in the original, that's not me being lazy, that's just how it was handed to me 😭 — and the date is October 2026. the page is ixgbe_intr(9) and she's iconic for it. slay, periodt, go read the other 130 pages now. 💖🦋🌸
