description structure in the descriptor structures array. The descriptor structure contains

status information and pointers to the interrupt flow method and the interrupt chip structure

which are assigned to this interrupt.

Whenever an interrupt triggers, the low level arch code calls into the generic interrupt code

by calling desc->handle_irq(). This high level IRQ handling function only uses desc->chip

primitives referenced by the assigned chip descriptor structure. The details of these

primitives are covered in later sections.

High level driver API

The high level driver API normally used in device drivers consists of the following functions:

●

request_irq()

●

free_irq()

●

disable_irq()

●

enable_irq()

●

disable_irq_nosync() (SMP only)

●

synchronize_irq() (SMP only)

●

set_irq_type()

●

set_irq_wake()

●

set_irq_data()

●

set_irq_chip()

●

set_irq_chip_data()

The details of some of the most important APIs described above are covered in

Section 3.2.5: VIC usage.
