rsu_max_retry_callback(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… rsu_max_retry_callback β€” like, the official Kernel API Manual page (section 9), bestie ✨

Okay so picture this: we're deep in the kernel docs, section 9 of the Kernel API Manual, and the star of the show is rsu_max_retry_callback. Yes it's a long name. No we're not shortening it. It's iconic, it ate, periodt. πŸŽ€


🌸 NAME 🌸

rsu_max_retry_callback β€” the callback that comes back from the Intel service layer, and its whole entire job is getting the max retry value from the firmware. That's it. That's the vibe check. πŸ’–


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void rsu_max_retry_callback (struct stratix10_svc_client *client ,
struct stratix10_svc_cb_data *data );

Not me showing you the exact signature so you literally cannot get it wrong 🫢 note that it returns void β€” nothing comes back out of this bad boy directly, it's a callback, it's giving "I'll handle it when I'm called" energy.


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • client β€” a pointer to client. That's your client right there πŸ’…
  • data β€” a pointer to the callback data structure. All the good stuff lives in there πŸ‘‘

🌈 DESCRIPTION 🌈

So this is a callback from the Intel service layer, and its designated purpose on this earth is: max retry. Lowkey simple, highkey essential. It's the firmware's way of handing over the max retry value and this function is the one who picks up the phone. πŸ“žβœ¨


πŸ‘‘ SEE ALSO πŸ‘‘

The kernel file itself lives at ./drivers/firmware/stratix10-rsu.c β€” go look, it's right there, no cap 🧚

And the whole friend group, in the order the original lists them (respect the order, always):

That's the squad. Every single one. Don't skip a single callback, we don't do that here πŸ’€πŸ”₯


Fr fr reminder: this page is filed under ./drivers/firmware, brought to you by the October 2026 crew, and yes β€” that's the source/version and date doing their little sign-off at the bottom of the original. Slay. πŸ’œβ­

Stay hydrated, read your callbacks, and remember: the firmware said max retry and this function said "say less" πŸ“πŸ’…
