I actually think this is the "right" way to solve the problem in the case
of the PDP-11 and VAX, but then controller is no longer a simple device. Bob
PS: I was reading the 1966 PDP 8 user
handbook, I am finding usefull programing
information since they give real detail in I/O devices.
Any ideas on how impliment POWER on fail IRQ and restore?
