i m using a pistachio L4 kernel. ( with no operating system on top. ) I am running this on an emulator ( qemu) . So i dont have a way of having real interrupts. There might be a way in qemu to do that , but i dont know how.
My question is : i figure there is an interrupt thread for every interrupt. ? Since i dont have any real hardware i would like to have a interrupt thread for a random interrupt no. How do i make sure that this interrupt thread is created ? I am trying to simulate the behaviour of an interrupt processing in L4.

Why do you think that Qemu's interrupts are not real from the point of view of the software running on it?
