Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a hybrid interrupt processing device and method. The device includes a task interrupt setting unit that sets reception of a device interrupt generated by an input/output device and reception of a sleep timer interrupt during a process of issuing a task command to the input/output device, a task processing standby unit that waits for the occurrence of the device interrupt and the sleep timer interrupt, and an input/output processing unit that completes task processing according to the task command through a first-received interrupt event—either the device interrupt or the sleep timer interrupt—and blocks the second interrupt event that has not yet occurred.
Claims17
A hybrid interrupt processing device comprising:
- a task interrupt setting unit that sets reception of a device interrupt generated by an input/output device and reception of a sleep timer interrupt during a process of providing a task command to the input/output device;
- a task processing standby unit that waits for occurrence of the device interrupt and the sleep timer interrupt;
- and
- an input/output processing unit that completes task processing according to the task command based on a first-received interrupt event—either the device interrupt or the sleep timer interrupt—and blocks a second interrupt event that has not yet occurred.
A hybrid interrupt processing method comprising:
- a task interrupt setting step of setting reception of a device interrupt generated by an input/output device and reception of a sleep timer interrupt during a process of providing a task command to the input/output device;
- a task processing standby step of waiting for occurrence of the device interrupt and the sleep timer interrupt;
- and
- an input/output processing step of completing task processing according to the task command through a first-received interrupt event—either the device interrupt or the sleep timer interrupt—and blocking a second interrupt event that has not yet occurred.
