πŸ’… t3_port_intr_clear β€” a lil' kernel API manual moment (section 9, bestie) πŸŽ€

okay so welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9, and today's main character is t3_port_intr_clear. yes we're in the driver guts. yes it's iconic. let's go ✨


🌸 NAME 🌸

t3_port_intr_clear β€” clears the port-specific interrupts, no cap 🧹


⭐ SYNOPSIS ⭐

void t3_port_intr_clear (struct adapter *adapter , int idx );

that's the whole vibe. returns nothing (void), takes two things, does the thing. πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • adapter β€” the adapter this whole situation is attached to 🫢
  • idx β€” the index of the port whose interrupts you want cleared, iykyk 🎯

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So basically: this clears the port-specific interrupts β€” and when we say port-specific we mean MAC and PHY interrupts, literally both of them β€” for whichever port of the given adapter you point at. that's it. that's the function. clears them. slay πŸ”₯
