4.3.3
Dual Interrupt System
The PCI controller can receive two hardware IRQ requests. However, only
one IRQ will be sent to PCI bus, the two IRQ requests must be
distinguished by user’s interrupt service routine (ISR).
The two IRQ requests are named as INT1 and INT2. INT1 comes from COS
P1 & P2, P1C0, P1C3, or the event counter interrupt. INT2 comes from
COS P3 & P4, P2C0, P2C3, or the timer interrupt. The sources of INT1 and
INT2 is selectable by using the Interrupt Source Control (ISC) Register.
