[U-Boot-Users] ARM: interrupts using in standalone application

Hello,

will nested interrupts be managed by u-boot or ?P-core?

If not how?



Thanks for your help!

Plain U-Boot doesn't use any interrupts, although there are files
like cpu/<arch>/<subarch>/interrupts.c which contain some timer
handling functions.

But nevertheless you can implement your own interrupt handling
while being quite sure that no standard drivers or functions from
U-Boot will cause conflicts.

If you want to push such an interrupt based functionality to the
mainstream U-Boot, this will probably not be acceptable, unless you
have extraordinary good arguments why interrupts are required.

With best regards
Andreas Schweigstill

   other embedded device development, don't hesitate to contact me

... or any other of the experts and/or companies hanging around here.

Really, that was a pretty shameless plug. Are you so desparate to
betake yourself to violating the Netiquette?   Grrrghhh...
