About this tag
Discussions on WindowsForum.com about interrupt controllers cover both hardware driver issues and upstream kernel security fixes. One thread addresses a missing driver for the System Interrupt Controller on an X58 chipset system, where multiple unrecognized instances appear in Device Manager. Another thread details a Linux kernel patch for CVE-2025-68766, which fixes an out-of-bounds access bug in the Microchip External Interrupt Controller (irqchip/mchp-eic) by correcting error handling in IRQ mapping. These posts highlight interrupt controller troubleshooting for Windows hardware configuration and Linux kernel security updates.
