When longer interface names are used, the action names exposed in /proc/interrupts and /proc/irq/* maybe truncated. For example, when using the predictable name algorithm in systemd on a HiSilicon D05, I see: ubuntu@d05-3:~$ grep enahisic2i0-tx /proc/interrupts | sed 's/.* //' enahisic2i0-tx0 enahisic2i0-tx1 [...] enahisic2i0-tx8 enahisic2i0-tx9 enahisic2i0-tx1 enahisic2i0-tx1 enahisic2i0-tx1 enahisic2i0-tx1 enahisic2i0-tx1 enahisic2i0-tx1 Increase the max ring name length to allow for an interface name of IFNAMSIZE. After this change, I now see: $ grep enahisic2i0-tx /proc/interrupts | sed 's/.* //' enahisic2i0-tx0 enahisic2i0-tx1 enahisic2i0-tx2 [...] enahisic2i0-tx8 enahisic2i0-tx9 enahisic2i0-tx10 enahisic2i0-tx11 enahisic2i0-tx12 enahisic2i0-tx13 enahisic2i0-tx14 enahisic2i0-tx15 Signed-off-by: dann frazier <dann.frazier@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
