omap_rproc_watchdog_isr(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay so bestie, this is the omap_rproc_watchdog_isr(9) page from the Kernel API Manual πŸŽ€βœ¨ and it's literally the watchdog ISR handler for a remoteproc device.

omap_rproc_watchdog_isr - Watchdog ISR handler for remoteproc device πŸ’…

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

irqreturn_t omap_rproc_watchdog_isr (int irq , void *data );

πŸŽ€ ARGUMENTS πŸŽ€

  • irq β€” IRQ number associated with a watchdog timer πŸ”₯
  • data β€” IRQ handler data 🫢

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

okay so this ISR routine is the one running the required necessary low-level code to acknowledge a watchdog timer interrupt, no cap 🫢. a rproc can have multiple watchdog timers associated with it (like IPUs which have 2 watchdog timers, one per Cortex M3/M4 core), so a lookup has to be performed to identify the timer to acknowledge its interrupt. it's giving "which timer is this? bestie, we need to know" 😭

the function also invokes rproc_report_crash to report the watchdog event to the remoteproc driver core, to trigger a recovery. so it's not just a vibe check β€” it reports the watchdog event and kicks off recovery πŸ”₯ periodt.

🌸 RETURN 🌸

IRQ_HANDLED on success, otherwise IRQ_NONE πŸ’–
