I'm a little confused with your comment above. "INT lost while kernel processing the last INT".
I would think it won't be lost, maybe more like delayed in processing.
Doesn't the interrupt controller send the INT when the kernel re-enables the INT again.
With what u are suggesting we would lose INT a lot.
what do u thhink ? Anybody else, any comments ?
Thanks,
