Using Tasklets..

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

i'm writing a device driver for a particular device. The bottom half of 
the interrupt handler is handled by a tasklet. i.e. i schedule a tasklet
from the interrupt handler.

What happens if multiple interrupts arive before any of the tasklet is 
actually executed. i.e. if three interrupts arrive consecutively, then three
tasklets will be scheduled by the interrupt handler. 

Then will the tasklet
be executed 3 times? and if executed will it be executed one after the another
or is it possible for them to execute in parallel.?

TIA,

	~john
