Detailed Description

C++ Irq interface, see IRQs for the C interface.

Note: "IRQ" is short for "interrupt request". This is often used interchangeably for "interrupt"

The Irq class provides access to abstract interrupts provided by the microkernel. Interrupts may be

hardware interrupts provided by the platform interrupt controller,
virtual device interrupts provided by the microkernel's virtual devices (virtual serial or trace buffer) or
virtual interrupts that can be triggered by user programs (IRQs) via the inherited method L4::Triggerable::trigger().

For hardware and virtual device interrupts the Irq object must be bound to an interrupt source, see L4::Icu. To receive interrupts, the Irq object must be bound to a thread, see L4::Rcv_endpoint.

Irq objects can be created using a factory, see the L4::Factory API (L4::Factory::create()).

Member Function Documentation

◆ detach()

l4_msgtag_t L4::Irq::detach ( l4_utcb_t * utcb = l4_utcb() )

inlinenoexcept

Detach from this interrupt.

Parameters

utcb	UTCB to be used for this operation, shall be the UTCB of the calling thread. See l4_utcb.

Returns: Syscall return tag

Return values

0	Successfully detached, there was no interrupt pending.
1	Successfully detached, there was an interrupt pending.
-L4_EPERM	No L4_CAP_FPAGE_S rights on the capability used to invoke this operation.

Definition at line 148 of file irq.

References l4_irq_detach_u().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ receive()

l4_msgtag_t L4::Irq::receive	(	l4_timeout_t	timeout = `L4_IPC_NEVER`,
		l4_utcb_t *	utcb = `l4_utcb()`
	)

inlinenoexcept

Unmask and wait for this IRQ.

Parameters

timeout	Timeout.
utcb	UTCB to be used for this operation, shall be the UTCB of the calling thread. See l4_utcb.

Returns: Syscall return tag

Note: If this is the function normally used for your IRQs consider using L4::Semaphore instead of L4::Irq.

Definition at line 163 of file irq.

References l4_irq_receive_u().

Here is the call graph for this function:

◆ unmask()

l4_msgtag_t L4::Irq::unmask ( l4_utcb_t * utcb = l4_utcb() )

inlinenoexcept

Unmask this IRQ.

Parameters

utcb	UTCB to be used for this operation, shall be the UTCB of the calling thread. See l4_utcb.

Returns: Syscall return tag for a send-only operation, this means there is no return value except L4_MSGTAG_ERROR indicating success or failure of the send operation. Use l4_ipc_error() to check for errors and do not use l4_error().

Irq::wait() and Irq::receive() operations already include an unmask(), do not use an extra unmask() in these cases.

Definition at line 193 of file irq.

Here is the caller graph for this function:

		l4_timeout_t	timeout = `L4_IPC_NEVER`,
		l4_utcb_t *	utcb = `l4_utcb()`
	)

inlinenoexcept

Unmask IRQ and (open) wait for any message.

Parameters

label	The protected label shall be received here.
timeout	Timeout.
utcb	UTCB to be used for this operation, shall be the UTCB of the calling thread. See l4_utcb.

Returns: Syscall return tag
