Hi,

on xen-ia64-devel, we are currently discussing on IRQ delivery.
Xen/x86 delivers IRQs using the event channel.
Xen/ia64 currently delivers IRQs using the virtualized hardware way.

Is there major drawbacks about not using event channel (from a XEN POV) ?

How xen/ppc delivers interrupts ?

Thanks,
Tristan.
