Interrupts page 260 of the Operating systems book
Interrupts originate from hardware or software events that require immediate attention from the CPU. Hardware interrupts are generated by devices such as keyboards, mice, or network cards to signal that they need processing, while software interrupts can be triggered by system calls or exceptions in programs. These interrupts allow the CPU to respond quickly to changing conditions or requests, ensuring efficient multitasking and system responsiveness.
Under MS DOS, interrupts originate with the central processing unit (CPU). The CPU recognizes issues in applications and stops them and sometimes restarts them in order for them to function properly. Sometimes it shut the application down entirely.
There are three types of interrupts.... 1. internal Interrupts 2. External Interrupts 3. Software Interrupts... read more
it has 256 interrupts ..
An interrupt is an event that alters the sequence in which the processor execute instructions. It is generated by hardware of computer system. Classes of interrupt:- IBM processor has six types of interrupts. * svc interrupt(supervisor call) *input/output interrupts *external interrupts *Restart interrupts *Program check interrupt *Machine check interrupts
i dont know either
I believe it is either from Latin or Greek.
1.The excluding interrupts are INT0 & INT1 2.The Timer0 and Timer1 are interrupts are generated by TF0 and TF1
Maskable interrupts trigger events are not always important and so the programmer can decide that the event should not cause a program to jump. Nonmaskable interrupts can not be ignored by the programmer and therefore they have absolute priority.
