tsi721_sr2pc_ch_msix(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’… tsi721_sr2pc_ch_msix(9)

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Kernel API Manual β€” yes, the actual kernel docs, we're reading those now, look at us go πŸŽ€ β€” and it's about one very specific little interrupt handler. Let's get into it ✨


✨ NAME ✨

tsi721_sr2pc_ch_msix β€” the Tsi721 MSI-X SR2PC Channel interrupt handler. that's it, that's the whole vibe πŸ’–


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

irqreturn_t tsi721_sr2pc_ch_msix (int irq , void *ptr );

like, it takes two things and returns an irqreturn_t. iconic behaviour, no notes 🫢


πŸ¦‹ ARGUMENTS πŸ¦‹

  • irq β€” the Linux interrupt number. that's the number the kernel uses to say "hey, something happened" πŸ’«
  • ptr β€” pointer to interrupt-specific data, and in this case that's a tsi721_device structure. so it's like, which device are we talking about, bestie? this pointer knows πŸ‘‘

🧚 DESCRIPTION 🧚

it handles Tsi721 interrupts coming from the SR2PC Channel. that's the job. it shows up, it handles them, it leaves πŸ’…


πŸ’€ NOTE πŸ’€

at this moment it services only one SR2PC channel, the one associated with inbound doorbells. so don't come for it expecting multitasking energy β€” it's a one-channel kind of handler, and that's lowkey the whole situation 😭


⭐ RETURN ⭐

IRQ_HANDLED β€” that's the answer, that's the whole return value, periodt πŸ”₯
