πŸ’– pch_gbe_request_irq(9) β€” the Kernel API Manual glow-up πŸ’–

Okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for pch_gbe_request_irq β€” yes, that's the manual section 9, we're in kernel-doc territory now πŸŽ€


✨ NAME ✨

pch_gbe_request_irq β€” literally just allocating an interrupt line. that's the whole vibe. it goes and grabs one for you 🫢


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

int pch_gbe_request_irq (struct pch_gbe_adapter *adapter );

that's it. one function, one arg, returns an int. no cap, it's giving minimal and iconic πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • adapter β€” the board private structure. like, the board's own private lil struct. it's the main character here and you gotta hand it over πŸ‘‘

🌈 RETURN 🌈

ok so it returns an int and the vibes are binary:

  • 0 β€” Successfully. slay, you got your interrupt line πŸ’–
  • Negative value β€” Failed. not slay. something went sideways 😭
ngl if you get a negative value back, that's your cue to go touch some grass and figure out why the interrupt request didn't land. no interrupt line for you, bestie πŸ’€
