摘要： A processor receives interrupts of a same type from hardware. The processor determines a rate at which the interrupts are being received. The processor compares the rate at which the interrupts are being received to a threshold rate. In response to determining that the rate at which the interrupts are being received is greater than the threshold rate, the processor sends just the first received interrupt to firmware for processing. All other of the interrupts are not sent from the processor to the firmware but instead are suppressed by the processor. By comparison, in response to determining that the rate at which the interrupts are being received is less than the threshold rate, the processor can send all the interrupts from the processor to firmware for processing.

摘要： A method, system, and program product for recovering from a bus error in a computer system having a hot plug interface. In accordance with the method of the present invention, an operating system transparent interrupt, such as a system management interrupt, is generated in response to a bus error. Responsive to the operating system transparent interrupt, the hot pluggable bus is scanned and a device associated with the error is identified by an interrupt handler invoked by the interrupt. Finally, a hot plug configuration manager, such as an advanced configuration and power interface is utilized to remove the identified device from system operations without having to restart the system.
