What is the difference in interrupt mechanism from software
to hardware?

routines designed by the software programmer....they can be
modified by the programmer.....hardware interrupts can't be
modified by the programmers because they are priveleged
instructions and are under the control of the operating
systems...i think this answer is correct....any
modifications inform me.....
