3.5.14 Interrupt Management Function
The interrupt management function provides a function to process requested external interrupts in real time.
The interrupt management service calls provided by the MR308 kernel include the following:
• Returns from interrupt handler (ret_int)
The ret_int service call activates the scheduler to switch over tasks as necessary when returning from
the interrupt handler.
When using the C language,39, this function is automatically called at completion of the handler func-
tion. In this case, therefore, there is no need to invoke this service call.
Figure 3.43 shows an interrupt processing flow. Processing a series of operations from task selection to register
restoration is called a "scheduler.".
