There are six classes of interrupt: *Supervisor Call Interrupts (SVC) *I/O Interrupts *External Interrupts *Restart Interupts *Program Check Interrupt *Machine Check Interrupts
Intr timer interrupt 0 and 1 external interrupt 0 and 1
IRQ 0
when ever an interrupt occurs, it saves the context of the program being executed & sets the PC to the starting address of the interrupt handling program. now after servicing the interrupt if the same process is resumed which was being interrupted then we will say a context switch has occurred.But imagine after servicing the interrupt if a new process is to be executed then some more work is required, that is it has to save some more information from the PCB to keep reference to resume its execution and we say process switch has occurred..!!
interrupt is a disturbance ,and request to do various jobs unusually while executed to be in current process in a system
Program control Interrupt:-Program interrupt can be described as a transfer of program control form a currently running program to another service program on a request generated externally or internally. After the service program is executed the control returns to the original program. It is imperative for the CPU to return to the same state that it was when interrupt occurred after the program interrupted and the service routine has been executed. The state of the CPU at the end of the executive cycle(when the interrupt is recognized )is determined from:1. The content of the program counter. 2. The content of all processor registers. 3. The content of certain status conditions.Interrupts can be classified into the major types as below:-1. External interrupts:- this is come from input output devices, from a timing device, from a circuit monitoring the power supply, or from any other external source. 2. Internal Interrupts:- this is arise when an instruction or data is used illegally or erroneously. These interrupts are also known as traps. 3.Software interrupts:-external and internal interrupts r occur in the hardware of the CPU. A software interrupt is initiated during execution of an instruction. Software interrupts is a special call instruction that behaves like an interrupt rather than a subroutine call. It can be called to function by the programmer to intitiate an interrupt procedure at any desired pointing the program.ReagrdsRaj Choudhary (kajla 9950645563)
When programs' application data and interrupt service routines are being executed they are held in a computer's main memory. The largest component of main memory is RAM.
SVC (supervisor-call): A request from the user-program to the kernel (or supervisor), to do something like open a file, allocate memory, create a new process etc. In x86 platform SVCs are executed via "INT nn" machine instruction, that's what Intel calls 'software interrupt'.
interrupt handling is the process of handling a break or interrupt called by a program where as exception handling is for handling some exceptional conditions that'll occur when a program is running

internal interrupt is synchronous with the program while external interrupts are asynchronous.
