Questions tagged [interrupts]
A mechanism for the control of program flow in a computer. When interrupted a computer saves its present operational state and changes to executing code (interrupt handler) that is dependent upon which interrupt was generated. Interrupts can be either hardware- or software-sourced; software-sourced interrupts are called traps. It is an alternate mechanism to polling and is the basis around which most I/O, multitasking and control is implemented.
