What is the difference detween ISR & function call
Answer Posted / bhavin
ISR runs in Interpret context ; where as function routine runs in thread context of Caller .
so during an interrupt total context switch happens and after returning from interrupt scheduler is invoked .
A function call is essentially just a jump instruction apart from PC and CPU reg saving no other context change hapnes ( T.ID, Process ID , address space etc) .
