no cap, that's the whole signature. keep it exactly like that ✨

  • wx β€” pointer to wx struct. yes bestie, the struct itself, hand it over πŸŽ€
  • direction β€” 0 for Rx, 1 for Tx, -1 for other causes. three moods, pick one 🌈
  • queue β€” queue to map the corresponding interrupt to. this is the queue getting its little interrupt bestie assigned πŸ’–
