π pdc_pat_get_irt_size β Kernel API Manual β¨
okay bestie, welcome to page pdc_pat_get_irt_size(9) from the Kernel API Manual π this one's short and sweet, no cap β it's a lil PDC function that tells you how many entries live in a cell's interrupt table. let's get into it π«Ά
π NAME π
pdc_pat_get_irt_size β literally just retrieves the number of entries in the cell's interrupt table π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
int pdc_pat_get_irt_size (unsigned long *num_entries , unsigned long
cell_num );
she's an int, she takes two args, she's iconic π
π ARGUMENTS π
num_entriesβ the return value, bestie. that's where the answer lands πcell_numβ the target cell. yeah, that cell π«
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so this PDC function returns the number of entries in the interrupt table of the cell you specified. that's it. that's the whole vibe check β one number, one table, one cell πΈ
ngl it's giving "small function, big responsibility" energy and i'm obsessed π
