zynq_gpio_irq_ack(9)
π zynq_gpio_irq_ack(9) β like, the Kernel API Manual, bestie β¨
okay so real talk, this page? it's from the Kernel API Manual, and it's all about one tiny lil function that does one tiny lil thing: acknowledging an interrupt on a gpio pin. that's it. that's the whole vibe. but ngl it's kind of a big deal in context, so let's get into it π«Ά
πΈ NAME πΈ
zynq_gpio_irq_ack β acknowledge the interrupt of a gpio pin. yes literally, that's the job. she clocks in, she acks the irq, she leaves π
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
void zynq_gpio_irq_ack (struct irq_data *irq_data );
like, that's the whole signature. void return β she gives nothing back, she's not here for your emotional validation, she just does the thing π
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
irq_dataβ irq data containing the irq number of the gpio pin for the interrupt you wanna ack. so it's carrying the receipts: which pin, which interrupt, all of it. you hand her this and she knows exactly what to acknowledge π
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea π₯ this function calculates the gpio pin number from the irq number, and then it sets the bit in the Interrupt Status Register of the corresponding bank β and that is how the irq gets ACKed. periodt.
basically: irq number goes in, math happens, the right bank's Interrupt Status Register gets its bit set, interrupt officially acknowledged. she ate and left no crumbs π
π SEE ALSO π
okay this is the group chat of related functions and structs, and honestly the whole friend group is iconic:

lowkey a reminder: this page ships out of ./drivers/gpio, dated October 2026. so when you're citing it in your notes, that's the source and the date, no cap π§
and that's the whole page, bestie. go ack those interrupts. slay π β¨π
