megasas_alloc_irq_vectors(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– megasas_alloc_irq_vectors πŸ’–

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, bestie β€” this one's about megasas_alloc_irq_vectors, and yes it's a kernel function, and yes we're gonna get through it together 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

megasas_alloc_irq_vectors β€” Allocate IRQ vectors/enable MSI-x vectors πŸŽ€

like, that's the whole job description and it ate, no notes.


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void megasas_alloc_irq_vectors (struct megasas_instance *instance );

it's giving very short, very void, very "i return nothing and i know it" πŸ’…


✨ ARGUMENTS ✨

  • instance β€” Adapter soft state. that's it, that's the whole argument. one (1) pointer, one (1) struct, zero (0) drama 🌸

✨ RETURN ✨

void β€” literally returns nothing, it's giving "i did the thing, don't ask me for a receipt" 😭


✨ SEE ALSO ✨

first up, the source file if you wanna read it with your own eyeballs πŸ‘€:

Kernel file ./drivers/scsi/megaraid/megaraid_sas_base.c

and now the full squad β€” every single one, no skips, no cuts, we do not leave a friend behind πŸ’œ

ngl there's no DESCRIPTION section on this page and i'm not about to make one up β€” the facts are the facts, periodt πŸ’…

and that's the page!! πŸ¦‹ this legend lives under ./drivers/scsi/megaraid, it's dated October 2026, and its name is β€” say it with me β€” megasas_alloc_irq_vectors(9) πŸ‘‘βœ¨ bye bestie, go alloc some IRQ vectors, slay πŸŽ€
