KINTERRUPT_POLARITY enumeration (miniport.h)

The KINTERRUPT_POLARITY enumeration indicates how a device signals an interrupt request on an interrupt line.

Syntax

typedef enum _KINTERRUPT_POLARITY {
  InterruptPolarityUnknown,
  InterruptActiveHigh,
  InterruptRisingEdge,
  InterruptActiveLow,
  InterruptFallingEdge,
  InterruptActiveBoth,
  InterruptActiveBothTriggerLow,
  InterruptActiveBothTriggerHigh
} KINTERRUPT_POLARITY, *PKINTERRUPT_POLARITY;

Constants

InterruptPolarityUnknown The interrupt polarity is unknown.
InterruptActiveHigh Active-high interrupt. The interrupt input type is level-triggered, and an interrupt request is indicated by a high signal level on the interrupt line. The request remains active as long as the line remains high.
InterruptRisingEdge Rising-edge-triggered interrupt. The interrupt input type is edge-triggered, and an interrupt request is indicated by a low-to-high transition on the interrupt line.
InterruptActiveLow Active-low interrupt. The interrupt input type is level-triggered, and an interrupt request is indicated by a low signal level on the interrupt line. The request remains active as long as the line remains low.
InterruptFallingEdge Falling-edge-triggered interrupt. The interrupt input type is edge-triggered, and an interrupt request is indicated by a high-to-low transition on the interrupt line.
InterruptActiveBoth Active-both interrupt. The interrupt input type is edge-triggered, and an interrupt request is indicated by a low-to-high or a high-to-low transition on the interrupt line. After a low-to-high transition signals an interrupt request, the interrupt line remains high until a high-to-low transition signals the next interrupt request. Similarly, after a high-to-low transition signals an interrupt request, the interrupt line remains low until a low-to-high transition signals the next interrupt request.
InterruptActiveBothTriggerLow Reserved for use by the operating system.
InterruptActiveBothTriggerHigh Reserved for use by the operating system.

Remarks

A KINTERRUPT_POLARITY enumeration constant is frequently used in conjunction with a KINTERRUPT_MODE enumeration constant to describe an interrupt signal. A KINTERRUPT_MODE enumeration constant indicates whether the interrupt signal from a device is level-triggered or edge-triggered.
