handler_intr_info(9s)
NAME
  handler_intr_info - General: Contains interrupt handler information

SYNOPSIS
  _________________________________
  Member Name	     Data Type
  _________________________________
  configuration_st   caddr_t
  intr		     int (*intr) ()
  param		     caddr_t
  config_type	     unsigned int
  _________________________________

MEMBERS
  configuration_st
      Specifies a pointer to the bus or controller structure for which an
      associated interrupt handler is written.

  intr
      Specifies the name of the interrupt handler for the specified bus or
      controller.

  param
      Specifies a parameter that you want passed to the specified interrupt
      handler.

  config_type
      Specifies the driver type and whether the driver's interrupt handler
      can handle shared interrupts. If your device driver's interrupt handler
      cannot handle shared interrupts, you set this member to one of the
      following interrupt handler type bit values defined in <handler.h>:
      CONTROLLER_CONFIG_TYPE (the interrupt handler is for a controller) or
      ADAPTER_CONFIG_TYPE (the interrupt handler is for a bus adapter). If
      your device driver's interrupt handler can handle shared interrupts,
      you set this member to the bitwise inclusive OR of the interrupt
      handler type bit value and the shared interrupt bit value
      SHARED_INTR_CAPABLE.

DESCRIPTION
  The handler_intr_info data structure contains interrupt handler information
  for device controllers connected to a bus. This generic data structure
  makes device drivers more portable across different buses because it
  contains all of the necessary information to add an interrupt handler for
  any bus. Device driver writers set the ih_bus_info member of the ihandler_t
  data structure to the filled-in handler_intr_info data structure, usually
  in the driver's probe interface.

  The bus and controller data structures contain the bus- and controller-
  specific information that is not provided in handler_intr_info.







NOTES
  The handler_intr_info data structure is a direct copy of the tc_intr_info
  data structure that TURBOchannel bus device drivers use. The
  handler_intr_info data structure provides binary compatibility with
  previously written TURBOchannel device drivers and source code
  compatibility across device drivers that operate on a variety of buses,
  including TURBOchannel, PCI, EISA, and ISA buses.
