πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

✨ mbox_chan_txdone ✨

okay bestie, so this is a function from the Kernel API Manual, and it's literally the "hey, I'm done!" notification for mailbox transmission. no cap. πŸ’…


πŸ“› NAME πŸ“›

mbox_chan_txdone β€” it's the way for a controller driver to tell the framework that the last TX has completed. like a little "k, sent it!" ping. 🫢


πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

void mbox_chan_txdone (struct mbox_chan *chan , int r );

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • chan β€” Pointer to the mailbox chan on which TX happened. like, which channel are we talking about here. πŸ’–
  • r β€” Status of the last TX β€” it's either OK or ERROR. that's the vibe check for your transmission. ✨

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so picture this: the controller that has the IRQ for TX ACK calls this atomic API to tick the TX state machine forward. it's literally the heartbeat of your transmission flow. πŸ’“

⚠️ but bestie, hear me β€” it works only if txdone_irq is set by the controller. no txdone_irq, no tick. periodt. πŸ”₯
