πŸ’– rsi_handle_interrupt(9) β€” the kernel API manual, but make it make sense πŸŽ€

okay so bestie, we're in the Linux kernel API manual (section 9, the "kernel internals" girlies), and today's main character is rsi_handle_interrupt. That's the function the kernel calls the moment an interrupt shows up. Like, the interrupt happens, and this function is literally the one picking up the phone. no cap. πŸ”₯


✨ NAME ✨

rsi_handle_interrupt β€” this function is called upon the occurrence of an interrupt.

That's it, that's the whole job description. It handles the interrupt. She's the handler. Periodt. πŸ’…

Yeah, returns nothing, takes one thing. Simple. Clean. Iconic.


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • function β€” a pointer to the struct sdio_func structure. Just a pointer to the sdio_func struct, that's all she needs. 🫢

Like, literally none. It's void. She gives nothing back and honestly? relatable. She does the work and leaves. no notes. ✨

And the whole squad of related functions β€” every single one, no skipping, iykyk:

That's the whole group chat, fr fr. Go read them if you wanna know how the SDIO side of the RSI driver actually lives. πŸ“š


shoutout to ./drivers/net/wireless/rsi for being home base, and to the October 2026 edition of this page β€” this manual page is dated October 2026 and the footer credits ./drivers/net/wireless/rsi as the source. mwah. πŸ’‹
