Abstract: In this paper we describe a new, low-overhead technique for manipulating processor interrupt state in an operating system kernel. Both uniprocessor and multiprocessor operating systems protect against uniprocessor deadlock and data corruption by selectively enabling and disabling interrupts during critical sections. This happens frequently during latency-critical activities such as IPC, scheduling, and memory management. Unfortunately, the cycle cost of modifying the interrupt mask has... (Update)

...more aggressive (about a factor of 4) than what current operating systems provide. However it is achievable with fast interrupt technology [51]. We use it as the achievable value when varying other parameters to ensure that interrupt cost does not swamp out the e#ects of varying...
...overheads. The operating system, however, can be customized to provide low overhead user level interrupt masking schemes [SFL 94,SCB93] Systems may also provide a hybrid of polling and interrupt mechanisms. To eliminate polling across the memory bus into a peripheral...
