NMI
|
|
|
|
/NMI/ , n. Non-Maskable Interrupt. An IRQ 7 on the PDP-11 or 680[01234]0;
|
|
the NMI line on an 80[1234]86. In contrast with a priority interrupt (which
|
|
might be ignored, although that is unlikely), an NMI is never ignored.
|
|
Except, that is, on clone boxes, where NMI is often ignored on the
|
|
motherboard because flaky hardware can generate many spurious ones.
