Function Documentation

rte_intr_callback_register()

int rte_intr_callback_register	(	const struct rte_intr_handle *	intr_handle,
		rte_intr_callback_fn	cb,
		void *	cb_arg
	)

It registers the callback for the specific interrupt. Multiple callbacks can be registered at the same time.

Parameters

intr_handle	Pointer to the interrupt handle.
cb	callback address.
cb_arg	address of parameter for callback.

Returns

• On success, zero.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_callback_unregister()

int rte_intr_callback_unregister	(	const struct rte_intr_handle *	intr_handle,
		rte_intr_callback_fn	cb,
		void *	cb_arg
	)

It unregisters the callback according to the specified interrupt handle.

Parameters

intr_handle	pointer to the interrupt handle.
cb	callback address.
cb_arg	address of parameter for callback, (void *)-1 means to remove all registered which has the same callback address.

Returns

• On success, return the number of callback entities removed.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_callback_unregister_pending()

int rte_intr_callback_unregister_pending	(	const struct rte_intr_handle *	intr_handle,
		rte_intr_callback_fn	cb_fn,
		void *	cb_arg,
		rte_intr_unregister_callback_fn	ucb_fn
	)

Unregister the callback according to the specified interrupt handle, after it's no longer active. Fail if source is not active.

Parameters

intr_handle	pointer to the interrupt handle.
cb_fn	callback address.
cb_arg	address of parameter for callback, (void *)-1 means to remove all registered which has the same callback address.
ucb_fn	callback to call before cb is unregistered (optional). can be used to close fd and free cb_arg.

Returns

• On success, return the number of callback entities marked for remove.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_callback_unregister_sync()

__rte_experimental int rte_intr_callback_unregister_sync	(	const struct rte_intr_handle *	intr_handle,
		rte_intr_callback_fn	cb,
		void *	cb_arg
	)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Loop until rte_intr_callback_unregister() succeeds. After a call to this function, the callback provided by the specified interrupt handle is unregistered.

Parameters

intr_handle	pointer to the interrupt handle.
cb	callback address.
cb_arg	address of parameter for callback, (void *)-1 means to remove all registered which has the same callback address.

Returns

• On success, return the number of callback entities removed.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_enable()

int rte_intr_enable

(

const struct rte_intr_handle *

intr_handle

)

It enables the interrupt for the specified handle.

Parameters

intr_handle

pointer to the interrupt handle.

Returns

• On success, zero.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_disable()

int rte_intr_disable

(

const struct rte_intr_handle *

intr_handle

)

It disables the interrupt for the specified handle.

Parameters

intr_handle

pointer to the interrupt handle.

Returns

• On success, zero.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_ack()

int rte_intr_ack

(

const struct rte_intr_handle *

intr_handle

)

It acknowledges an interrupt raised for the specified handle.

This function should be called at the end of each interrupt handler either from application or driver, so that currently raised interrupt is acked and further new interrupts are raised.

Parameters

intr_handle

pointer to the interrupt handle.

Returns

• On success, zero.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_thread_is_intr()

int rte_thread_is_intr

(

void

)

Check if currently executing in interrupt context

Returns

• non zero in case of interrupt context
• zero in case of process context

rte_intr_instance_alloc()

__rte_experimental struct rte_intr_handle * rte_intr_instance_alloc

(

uint32_t

flags

)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

It allocates memory for interrupt instance. API takes flag as an argument which define from where memory should be allocated i.e. using DPDK memory management library APIs or normal heap allocation. Default memory allocation for event fds and event list array is done which can be realloced later based on size of MSIX interrupts supported by a PCI device.

This function should be called from application or driver, before calling any of the interrupt APIs.

Parameters

flags

See RTE_INTR_INSTANCE_F_* flags definitions.

Returns

• On success, address of interrupt handle.
• On failure, NULL.

rte_intr_instance_free()

__rte_experimental void rte_intr_instance_free

(

struct rte_intr_handle *

intr_handle

)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Free the memory allocated for interrupt handle resources.

Parameters

intr_handle

Interrupt handle allocated with rte_intr_instance_alloc(). If intr_handle is NULL, no operation is performed.

rte_intr_fd_set()

__rte_experimental int rte_intr_fd_set	(	struct rte_intr_handle *	intr_handle,
		int	fd
	)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Set the fd field of interrupt handle with user provided file descriptor.

Parameters

intr_handle	pointer to the interrupt handle.
fd	file descriptor value provided by user.

Returns

• On success, zero.
• On failure, a negative value and rte_errno is set.

rte_intr_fd_get()

__rte_experimental int rte_intr_fd_get

(

const struct rte_intr_handle *

intr_handle

)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Returns the fd field of the given interrupt handle instance.

Parameters

intr_handle

pointer to the interrupt handle.

Returns

• On success, fd field.
• On failure, a negative value.

rte_intr_type_set()

__rte_experimental int rte_intr_type_set	(	struct rte_intr_handle *	intr_handle,
		enum rte_intr_handle_type	type
	)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Set the type field of interrupt handle with user provided interrupt type.

Parameters

intr_handle	pointer to the interrupt handle.
type	interrupt type

Returns

• On success, zero.
• On failure, a negative value and rte_errno is set.

rte_intr_type_get()

__rte_experimental enum rte_intr_handle_type rte_intr_type_get

(

const struct rte_intr_handle *

intr_handle

)

Warning

EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Returns the type field of the given interrupt handle instance.

Parameters

intr_handle

pointer to the interrupt handle.

Returns

• On success, interrupt type
• On failure, RTE_INTR_HANDLE_UNKNOWN.
