How are multiple interrupts dealt with?

Answer 1

There are 2 approaches to handle this situation,

1.Disable interrupts while an interrupt is being processing

in this approach, when the processor is being processing an interrupt, the processor ignores any new interrupt signal and these new signals have to wait in a queue and processor will check after the currently processing interrupt is finished.

2. Defining priorities for interrupts

in this case, each interrupt has a priority value. When the processor is being executing an interrupt, another interrupt can interrupt and gain the processor if the second interrupt has a higher priority than first one
