INTERRUPT_DISTRIBUTE(9)    Kernel Developer's Manual   INTERRUPT_DISTRIBUTE(9)

NAME
     interrupt_distribute - assign an interrupt to a CPU

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/interrupt.h>

     int
     interrupt_distribute(void *ich, const kcpuset_t *newset,
         kcpuset_t *oldset);

DESCRIPTION
     The interrupt_distribute function exists to assign an interrupt to a CPU.

     If a driver (or the other kernel component) wishes to assign an interrupt
     to a CPU, it should pass an interrupt handler such as the return value of
     pci_intr_establish() as ich argument, and it should pass the kcpuset to
     which it should be assigned as newset.  To get the previous value, pass a
     non-NULL value to oldset.
