wx_set_ivar(9)
πΈ wx_set_ivar πΈ
okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual, section 9 β this one's wx_set_ivar(9), and it's literally the little function that tells your IVAR registers which interrupt cause goes to which vector. matchmaking, but for interrupts π
β¨ NAME β¨
wx_set_ivar β set the IVAR registers, mapping interrupt causes to vectors
like... it's a matchmaker. interrupt cause goes here, vector goes there, and wx_set_ivar makes the introduction π«Ά
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void wx_set_ivar (struct wx *wx , s8 direction , u16 queue , u16 msix_vector );
no cap, that's the whole signature. keep it exactly like that β¨
β¨ ARGUMENTS β¨
wxβ pointer to wx struct. yes bestie, the struct itself, hand it over πdirectionβ0for Rx,1for Tx,-1for other causes. three moods, pick one πqueueβ queue to map the corresponding interrupt to. this is the queue getting its little interrupt bestie assigned πmsix_vectorβ the vector to map to the corresponding queue. the other half of the pairing π
