πŸ’… srpt_event_handler(9) β€” your fave asynchronous IB event callback, from the Kernel API Manual πŸŽ€

okay bestie, buckle up, because this is the whole Kernel API Manual entry for srpt_event_handler and it's honestly kind of a big deal ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

srpt_event_handler β€” the asynchronous IB event callback function. that's it, that's the name, and it ate πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

void srpt_event_handler (struct ib_event_handler *handler , struct ib_event *event );

πŸ“ ARGUMENTS πŸ“

  • handler β€” the IB event handler that got registered by ib_register_event_handler. that's your little guy, your registration receipt, your iykyk 🫢
  • event β€” the description of the event that happened. literally what went down, spelled out for you.

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea β˜• β€” this is a callback function, and the InfiniBand core calls it whenever an asynchronous IB event occurs. it's giving "the universe texts you and you have to answer" πŸ“±

⚠️ real talk bestie: this callback may occur in interrupt context. not a drill, not a vibe, just a fact. handle it accordingly, no cap.

also see section 11.5.2, Set Asynchronous Event Handler, in the InfiniBand Architecture Specification πŸ‘‘ (yes, the actual spec, go read it, it's iconic in a nerdy way)
