hello,
Could anybody let me know how exactly i can trace the "sequence" of events when the ISR of the device driver calls for the Kernels resurces. That is , what happens when the Network interface card interrupts the processor. What happens to the kernel and how does the sequence work between kernel and device driver in the case of Free BSD.
thanx
Vinu
