Abstract:
A technique for handling queued interrupts includes accumulating, by an interrupt routing controller (IRC), respective backlog counts for respective event paths. The backlog counts track a number of events received but not delivered as interrupts to associated virtual processor (VP) threads upon which respective target interrupt handlers execute. An increment backlog (IB) message is received by the IRC. In response to receiving the IB message, the IRC determines an associated saturate value for an event path specified in the IB message. The IRC increments an associated backlog count for the event path specified in the IB message as long as the associated backlog count does not exceed the associated saturate value.

Claim (Index 9):
The processing unit of  claim 8 , wherein the IRC is further configured to:\n in response to a lowering of an operating priority of a VP thread, receive a scan backlog (SB) message that identifies the VP thread and specifies a current operating priority for the VP thread; in response to receiving the SB message, scan a linked list of event paths associated with the VP thread to search for backlog events that have a higher priority than the current operating priority for the VP thread; and in response to a backlog event being located that has a higher priority than the current operating priority of the VP thread, initiate an interrupt to the VP thread starting with a highest priority event path and decrementing, by the IRC, the backlog count for the VP thread.
