  2. INT 10H - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INT_10H

    Normally a character cell has 8 scan lines, 0–7. So, CX=0607h is a normal underline cursor, CX=0007h is a full-block cursor. If bit 5 of CH is set, that often means "Hide cursor". So CX=2607h is an invisible cursor. Some video cards have 16 scan lines, 00h-0Fh. Some video cards don't use bit 5 of CH. With these, make Start>End (e.g. CX=0706h)

  3. Fast interrupt request - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_interrupt_request

    [1] [2] An FIQ takes priority over an IRQ in an ARM system. Only one FIQ source at a time is supported. This helps reduce interrupt latency as the interrupt service routine can be executed directly without determining the source of the interrupt. A context save is not required for servicing an FIQ since it has its own set of banked registers.

  4. Interrupt request - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_request

    IRQ 2/9 is the traditional interrupt line for an MPU-401 MIDI port, but this conflicts with the ACPI system control interrupt (SCI is hardwired to IRQ9 on Intel chipsets); [6] this means ISA MPU-401 cards with a hardwired IRQ 2/9, and MPU-401 device drivers with a hardcoded IRQ 2/9, cannot be used in interrupt-driven mode on a system with ACPI ...

  5. Keystroke logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keystroke_logging

    Keystroke logging, often referred to as keylogging or keyboard capturing, is the action of recording (logging) the keys struck on a keyboard, [1] [2] typically covertly, so that a person using the keyboard is unaware that their actions are being monitored. Data can then be retrieved by the person operating the logging program.

  6. Keyboard interrupt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_interrupt

    In computing, keyboard interrupt may refer to: A special case of signal (computing) , a condition (often implemented as an exception) usually generated by the keyboard in the text user interface A hardware interrupt generated when a key is pressed or released, see keyboard controller (computing)

  7. Interrupt handler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interrupt_handler

    For example, pressing a key on a computer keyboard, [1] or moving the mouse, triggers interrupts that call interrupt handlers which read the key, or the mouse's position, and copy the associated information into the computer's memory. [2] An interrupt handler is a low-level counterpart of event handlers.

  8. Keyboard controller (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_controller...

    The keyboard controller also handles PS/2 mouse input if a PS/2 mouse port is present. Today the keyboard controller is either a unit inside a Super I/O device or is missing, having its keyboard and mouse functions handled by a USB controller and its role in controlling the A20 line becoming integrated into the chipset's northbridge and then ...

  9. Signal (IPC) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_(IPC)

    The kill(2) system call sends a specified signal to a specified process, if permissions allow. Similarly, the kill(1) command allows a user to send signals to processes. The raise(3) library function sends the specified signal to the current process.
