💅 qed_mcp_handle_events — Kernel API Manual ✨

okay so bestie, welcome to the qed_mcp_handle_events page, straight out of the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? she's a busy one. let's get into it 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

qed_mcp_handle_events — this function is called from the DPC context. like, that's the whole vibe of it.

so here's the tea: after pointing PTT to the mfw mb, it checks for events sent by the MCP to the driver and acks them. and if a critical event gets detected, it will be handled right here, in this function. otherwise? the work gets queued to a sleepable workqueue. no cap. 💅

ngl the "point PTT at the mfw mb" step is literally the first thing that happens — don't skip it 💀

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

int qed_mcp_handle_events (struct qed_hwfn *p_hwfn , struct qed_ptt
*p_ptt );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

  • p_hwfn — HW function. that's the hardware function pointer, she's the main character 👑
  • p_ptt — PTT required for register access. you literally cannot touch the registers without her 🔑

⭐ RETURN ⭐

  • Int — 0 - Operation was successul. that's it, that's the return value, zero means we ate and left no crumbs 💖

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈

the whole qed_mcp extended universe, and the kernel file ./drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qed/qed_mcp.h — go read it, iykyk 📖

that's the whole page bestie, you're so smart for reading all of it 🧚

this one came to you from ./drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qed, dated October 2026, and she's serving qed_mcp_handle_events(9) energy. mwah 💋 go handle those events, queen 👑💖
