Presentation Transcript

  1. Interrupts and Interrupts Handling

  2. Interrupt Routing

  3. Initializing the Interrupt Handling Data Structures • The kernel's interrupt handling data structures are set up by the device drivers as they request control of the system's interrupts • The individual device drivers call Linux system services routines to register their interrupt handling routine addresses

  4. Interrupt Number • Some devices are fixed • e. g. floppy : IRQ 6 • PCI devices : no problem • PCI BIOS, PCI initialization • ISA : Linux allows device drivers to probe for their interrupts

  5. Interrupt Handling

  6. Linux Interrupt Handling • Linux read the interrupt status register of PIC to determine the source • Translate the source into offset int irq_action vector • Linux call into the interrupt handling routines for all of the irqaction data structures
