Re:[Qemu-devel] Interrupt request info

[Roger Lathrop]

Alessandro,

All you should need to do to raise an IRQ in your code is:
pic_set_irq(s->irq,1);

When the irq is serviced (in one of your ioport traps, I would assume), 
knock the irq down:
pic_set_irq(s->irq,0);

For debugging, you might want to go into i8259.c and uncomment the #define 
DEBUG_IRQ_COUNT line.
You can then use command 'info irq' in the monitor console. This will show 
you a count of interrupts for each IRQ.

Regards,
Roger
