In the handler for decrementer interrupt...there is a call to a C function...
Now if the call is removed...the decrementer interrupt works perfectly fine...
But if the C function is present, then the decrementer interrupt stops
coming after say 5-6 times...
Not able to find any reasoning for the same...
Has anyone come across this kind of problem?If yes, am i missing something?

Regards,
Sumedh
