25 /* SYNOPSIS */
26 AROS_LHA(struct Interrupt *, softint, A1),
28 /* LOCATION */
29 struct ExecBase *, SysBase, 30, Exec)
31 /* FUNCTION
32 Schedule a software interrupt to occur. If the processor is
33 currently running a user task, then the software interrupt will
34 prempt the current task and run itself. From a real interrupt, it
35 will queue the software interrupt for a later time.
37 Software interrupts are useful from hardware interrupts if you
38 wish to defer your processing down to a lower level. They can
39 also be used in some special cases of device I/O. The timer.device
40 and audio.device allow software interrupt driven timing and
41 audio output respectively.
43 Software interrupts are restricted to 5 different priority levels,
44 +32, +16, 0, -16, -32.
46 Software interrupts can only be scheduled once.
48 The software interrupt is called with the following prototype:
50 AROS_INTC1(YourIntCode, APTR, interruptData)
52 The interruptData is the value of the is_Data field.
54 INPUTS
55 softint - The interrupt you wish to schedule. When setting up
56 you should set the type of the interrupt to either
57 NT_INTERRUPT or NT_UNKNOWN.
59 RESULT
60 The software interrupt will be delivered, or queued for later
61 delivery.
63 NOTES
64 No bounds checking on the software interrupt priority is done.
65 Passing a bad priority to the system can have a strange effect.
67 EXAMPLE
69 BUGS
70 Older versions of the Amiga operating system require that the
71 software interrupts preserve the A6 register.
73 Software interrupts which are added from a software interrupt of
74 lower priority may not be called immediately.

120 This is the dispatcher for software interrupts. We go through the
121 lists and remove the interrupts before calling them. Because we
122 can be interrupted we should not cache the next pointer, but
123 retreive it from ExecBase each time.
125 Note: All these arguments are passed to the function, so you must
126 at least declare all of them. You do not however have to use any
127 of them (although that is recommended).
129 This procedure could be more efficient.
