hard and soft irqs

[Loren Frank <loren@neurostat.mgh.harvard.edu>]

I need to get real time timestamps for frames grabbed by a framegrabber board. 

As I only need a real time timestamp, my plan is to write a short real time 
interrupt handler that will read the timestamp and then assert a soft interrupt
at the same irq that would be serviced by the interrupt handler from the 
non-realtime frame grabber driver (bttv.o). 

I'm new to this, so if won't work or if there is a better way to accomplish 
this, I'd appreciate knowing....

Thanks,

Loren Frank
