Coming to your query, you can simulate a interrupt on a device (say an unused serial port other than what you use for console ) or any other hardware(say writing someing in the TX, to always receive a TX intr), and call your kernel API from within that. Remember that your kernel API should finish itself asap, and should not sleep and should not corrupt any global data which might be used in an interrupt context. -syed -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
