apicedge
Firmware Test Suite - apicedge test
This test sanity checks APIC irq edge/level configuration. The rule of thumb is as follows:
Interrupts < 16 should be edge triggered
Interrupts >= 16 should be level triggered
- The ACPI interrupt should be level triggered.
The data is gathered from /proc/interrupts, parsed and checked.
Examples:
fwts apicedge -
..runs the test on your machine and dumps the output to stdout.
Explanation of test results
Certain test results may require a little more explanation. This section will try and give some context to specific test failures.

LegacyIRQLevelTrig |
Legacy interrupt is level triggered and should be edge triggered. |
NonLegacyIRQLevelTrig |
