good enough, but i have a query regarding this then. On a 8K kernel stack system, doesn't interrupts share the stack associated with the current process which was interrupted?
Yes, I think so.
Doesn't interrupt steals the CPU slice time allocated to the running process to run?
I don't think so but I am not sure.
Doesn't it run in current process's context ?
No. I think the concept of process context is a higher-level logical concept. Though the interrupt share stack with the interrupted process, in my opinion it logically does not share the context with the process.
What am i missing here? Thanks ~psr
But I do not see the exact relationship between your specific queries and the original question.
