megaraid_ack_sequence(9)
π
megaraid_ack_sequence β like, the interrupt ack sequence for memory mapped HBAs (it's a man 9 kernel API page, iykyk)
okay so bestie, welcome to the kernel API manual, we're in the 9 section today and this page is called megaraid_ack_sequence. yes it's a whole mouthful, no I will not be shortening it, it's iconic and it deserves its full name π
β¨ NAME β¨
megaraid_ack_sequence β the interrupt ack sequence for memory mapped HBAs. that's it, that's the whole vibe π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
int megaraid_ack_sequence (adapter_t *adapter );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
adapterβ the controller's soft state. that's the thing you're passing in, she's carrying all the state, treat her right π«Ά
π« DESCRIPTION π«
so this is the interrupt acknowledgement sequence for memory mapped HBAs. what it does is: find out which command actually finished, then put those completed commands onto the completed list so they can be processed later. very "sort the mail now, deal with it later" of her honestly π
β RETURN β
returns 1 if the interrupt is valid, 0 otherwise. simple as that, no cap π₯
π SEE ALSO π
okay so this is the part where I need you to stay with me bestie because it's a long list and every single one of these matters. the kernel file lives at ./drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_mbox.c, and here's the whole squad:

like I said. the whole squad. read them all, they're all canon π
and that's the page!! before you go β this lil beauty comes from ./drivers/scsi/megaraid, dated October 2026, and she's filed under megaraid_ack_sequence(9) in the Kernel API Manual. slay, go ack those interrupts responsibly π§β¨
