33.Sh NAME
34.Nm BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR ,
35.Nm bus_describe_intr
36.Nd "associate a description with an active interrupt handler"
37.Sh SYNOPSIS
38.In sys/param.h
39.In sys/bus.h
40.Ft int
41.Fo BUS_BIND_INTR

50.Sh DESCRIPTION
51The
52.Fn BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR
53method associates a description with an active interrupt handler.
54The
55.Fa cookie
56parameter must be the value returned by a successful call to
57.Xr BUS_SETUP_INTR 9
58for the interrupt
59.Fa irq .
60.Pp
61The
62.Fn bus_describe_intr
63function is a simple wrapper around
64.Fn BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR .
65As a convenience,
66.Fn bus_describe_intr
67allows the caller to use
68.Xr printf 9
69style formatting to build the description string using
70.Fa fmt .
71.Pp
72When an interrupt handler is established by
73.Xr BUS_SETUP_INTR 9 ,
74the handler is named after the device the handler is established for.
75This name is then used in various places such as interrupt statistics
76displayed by
77.Xr systat 1
78and
79.Xr vmstat 8 .
80For devices that use a single interrupt,
81the device name is sufficiently unique to identify the interrupt handler.
82However, for devices that use multiple interrupts it can be useful to
83distinguish the interrupt handlers.
84When a description is set for an active interrupt handler,
85a colon followed by the description is appended to the device name to form
86the interrupt handler name.
87.Sh RETURN VALUES
88Zero is returned on success, otherwise an appropriate error is returned.
89.Sh SEE ALSO

91.Xr systat 1 ,
92.Xr vmstat 8 ,

94.Xr printf 9
95.Sh HISTORY
96The
97.Fn BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR
98method and
99.Fn bus_describe_intr
100functions first appeared in
101.Fx 8.1 .
102.Sh BUGS
103It is not currently possible to remove a description from an active interrupt
104handler.
