i8259x2

Description

The 8259x2 device implements the functionality of two cascaded 8259 interrupt controllers. The 8259x2 supplies 15 interrupt levels that connected devices can use to interrupt the cpu. The interrupt level to use should be set in the interrupting device. Limitations: Most registers in the 8259x2 device change hardware specific parameters. These are do-nothing in the 8259x2. Special Fully Nested Mode is not implemented. Buffered Mode is not implemented. Special Mask Mode is not implemented. Automatic End of Interrupt is not implemented. Rotate commands are not supported. Specific EOI commands are not supported.

Interfaces Implemented

conf_object, log_object, io_memory, simple_interrupt, interrupt_cpu

Notifiers

cell-change
Notifier that is triggered after the object's cell was changed.
object-delete
