Lou,

Most of my experience with interrupt service routines is with 6809 OS9, but I
would think the same rules apply: limit any system calls within any interrupt
service routine, particularly those that involve other device drivers, even if
it is just a memory device like pipes. I would go with the signals. Maybe
someone else with more OSK experience will also answer.

        -Bill-
