Hi,
In my experiment module, I allocated an unused IRQ to my module/driver, and then tried raising that interrupt through INT instruction from user space. Everything went fine, but I recvd. "no vm86_info:BAD " error message in kernel log (/var/log/messages), and my registered ISR didnt execute.
You cannot arbirarily raise any IRQ from software. There are predefined IRQs that can be raised in software, and chances are that you didn't chose one of them.
