Summary:A method, a computer program product, and a computer system for processing interrupt requests in a computer system. The computer system disables, for a processor, an interrupt request for threads other than an interrupt request handling thread. The computer system configures the processor to route the interrupt request to the interrupt request handling thread. The computer system determines, by the interrupt request handling thread, whether one of the threads needs to process the interrupt request. The computer presents, by the interrupt request handling thread, the interrupt request to the one of the threads, in response to determining that the one of the threads needs to process the interrupt request.
