IRQ Assignment Table
There are 15 interrupt sources of the system. Some are occupied by the system
devices. Only the ones that are not occupied can be distributed. The ISA devices
claim to engross the interrupt. Only the plug and play ISA devices can be distributed
by the BIOS or the OS. And several PCI devices share one interrupt through the
distribution of BIOS or OS. The diagram below shows parts of the interrupt
distribution under X86 platform, but it does not show the interrupt source occupied by
the PCI devices.
