💅 octep_dma_intr_handler(9) — from the Kernel API Manual, bestie

okay so huge news, we're reading a manpage from the Kernel API Manual today and honestly? it's short but it's iconic. this is octep_dma_intr_handler, and if you're here you're probably deep in driver land. welcome, sit with me 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

octep_dma_intr_handler — the common handler for dpi dma related interrupts. that's the whole vibe. she handles interrupts. dpi dma ones, specifically. periodt 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

irqreturn_t octep_dma_intr_handler (int irq , void *data );

like, look at her. a return type, a name, two args. clean, minimal, main character energy 👑

---

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• irq — the interrupt number. which interrupt are we talking about? this one. the number of it. 🔢
• data — interrupt data. yeah that's it, that's the description. it's giving "we trust you know what this is" 🙈

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so literally, this is the common handler for dpi dma related interrupts. that's the entire description, no cap. she's a shared handler, she's got one job, and she does it ✨

and that's the page!! mwah 💋

sign-off time 🧚 this one came from ./drivers/net/ethernet/marvell... and it's dated October 2026 — so yeah, she's from the future, and she's still handling interrupts. obsessed. 💜
