Sample code for the functions
install_isr()
and
remove_isr()
is presented as follows. Be
sure to pass a 32-bit structure pointer to the
install_isr()
function, because the main
program's data will probably be stored in a different memory segment than the one where the
interrupt functions are located. In addition, if you call the installation function from a language
besides C, make sure the parameters are passed in the proper order. C pushes parameters on the
stack from right to left, but most other languages, most notably Pascal, push parameters from left
to right. Finally, be sure to make the calls to the functions using 32-bit addresses, because all of
the code assumes data is offset with respect to a 32-bit return address. The code can be modified
to use 16-bit addresses by changing
far
to
near
and decrementing all references to the base page
register,
bp
, by two in
install_isr()
and
remove_isr()
only. Do not modify
isr_handler()
.
