  • Publication number: 20050289271
    Abstract: In some embodiments, the inventions include a chip having a status register circuit coupled to conductors to receive interrupt event signals to provide source signals corresponding to the interrupt event signals. The chip also includes a control register circuit to provide source enable signals for selective ones of the interrupt sources, and a re-arming logic circuit coupled to the conductors to receive the interrupt event signals and provide a re-arming signal. The chip further includes first logic circuit to receive the source signals, the source enable signals, and the re-arming signal to provide an initial interrupt signal, and message signaled interrupt (MSI) signal pulse generation logic to receive the initial interrupt signal and provide an MSI signal in response thereto. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
