mei_me_pg_intr(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 mei_me_pg_intr(9) — like, the kernel API manual bestie ✨

Okay so real talk, this page lives in section 9 of the kernel API manual and it's all about mei_me_pg_intr — no cap, that's the whole vibe. Let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

mei_me_pg_intr — literally does the pg processing inside the interrupt thread handler 💫

Like, that's her job. That's the whole assignment. She handles the pg stuff when the interrupt thread handler runs, and she ate 🔥

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void mei_me_pg_intr (struct mei_device *dev , u32 intr_source );

Not me showing you the exact signature because you will need it character for character 😭 copy it exactly, bestie:

void mei_me_pg_intr (struct mei_device *dev , u32 intr_source );

Returns void, so nothing comes back out. She's a do-the-thing function, not a tell-you-about-the-thing function 💅

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

Two args, both iconic, both essential:

  • dev — the device structure 👑 this is the whole device situation, handed over so she knows who she's working with.
  • intr_source — the interrupt source 🌈 a u32 telling you where the interrupt came from. iykyk.

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

Okay so this is the part where the original listed basically the entire extended universe of MEI helper functions, and I'm not about to skip a single one of them because every single reference matters 💖 Here's the whole squad, plus the kernel file they live in: ./drivers/misc/mei/hw-me.c

Fr fr, that's a lot of friends, and every one of them is spelled exactly like that, so don't go "fixing" any of them, bestie 💀

That's the whole page, babes 💜 This lil beauty comes out of ./drivers/misc/mei and the version stamp says October 2026 — and yes, the header up top is mei_me_pg_intr(9) and so is the sign-off at the bottom, because consistency is iconic ⭐ Go read about interrupts now, you're gonna slay 🦋💅
