31.Sh NAME
32.Nm BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR ,

34.Nd "associate a description with an active interrupt handler"

48.Sh DESCRIPTION
49The
50.Fn BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR
51method associates a description with an active interrupt handler.
52The
53.Fa cookie
54parameter must be the value returned by a successful call to
55.Xr BUS_SETUP_INTR 9
56for the interrupt
57.Fa irq .
58.Pp
59The
60.Fn bus_describe_intr
61function is a simple wrapper around
62.Fn BUS_DESCRIBE_INTR .
63As a convenience,
64.Fn bus_describe_intr
65allows the caller to use
66.Xr printf 9
67style formatting to build the description string using
68.Fa fmt .
69.Pp
70When an interrupt handler is established by
71.Xr BUS_SETUP_INTR 9 ,
72the handler is named after the device the handler is established for.
73This name is then used in various places such as interrupt statistics
74displayed by
75.Xr systat 1
76and
77.Xr vmstat 8 .
78For devices that use a single interrupt,
79the device name is sufficiently unique to identify the interrupt handler.
80However, for devices that use multiple interrupts it can be useful to
81distinguish the interrupt handlers.
82When a description is set for an active interrupt handler,
83a colon followed by the description is appended to the device name to form
84the interrupt handler name.
85.Sh RETURN VALUES
86Zero is returned on success, otherwise an appropriate error is returned.

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