Milisecondish, but depends on bus congestion and bus type. You need to schedule a thread which then does one but typically more register I/O operations on the device (read one or more IRQ status registers, and typically write back to acknowledge the interrupts as well). These tend for obvious reasons to be for low volume interrupts like jack detection. _______________________________________________ devicetree-discuss mailing list devicetree-discuss@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/devicetree-discuss
