This PR aims to remove some of the duplicate code we have in regards to sending interrupts.
We had around 15 copies of:
But also for each such a copy of the interrupt sending code, we had to pass around 4 variables
(interrupt_status, irq_line, intc, interrupt_evt)
to each worker thread, which is quite silly.This simplifies the handling, by creating a struct
InterruptTransport
which holds the fields and has asignal_used_queue
method. TheInterruptTransport
is managed by theMmioTransport
passing it to the device upon activation.
