+//! Traits and Structs to manage interrupt sources for devices.
+//!
+//! In system programming, an interrupt is a signal to the processor emitted by hardware or
+//! software indicating an event that needs immediate attention. An interrupt alerts the processor
+//! to a high-priority condition requiring the interruption of the current code the processor is
+//! executing. The processor responds by suspending its current activities, saving its state, and
+//! executing a function called an interrupt handler (or an interrupt service routine, ISR) to deal
+//! with the event. This interruption is temporary, and, after the interrupt handler finishes,
+//! unless handling the interrupt has emitted a fatal error, the processor resumes normal
+//! activities.
+//!
+//! Hardware interrupts are used by devices to communicate that they require attention from the
+//! operating system, or a bare-metal program running on the CPU if there are no OSes. The act of
+//! initiating a hardware interrupt is referred to as an interrupt request (IRQ). Different devices
+//! are usually associated with different interrupts using a unique value associated with each
+//! interrupt. This makes it possible to know which hardware device caused which interrupts.
+//! These interrupt values are often called IRQ lines, or just interrupt lines.
+//!
+//! Nowadays, IRQ lines is not the only mechanism to deliver device interrupts to processors.
+//! MSI [(Message Signaled Interrupt)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Message_Signaled_Interrupts)
+//! is another commonly used alternative in-band method of signaling an interrupt, using special
+//! in-band messages to replace traditional out-of-band assertion of dedicated interrupt lines.
+//! While more complex to implement in a device, message signaled interrupts have some significant
+//! advantages over pin-based out-of-band interrupt signaling. Message signaled interrupts are
+//! supported in PCI bus since its version 2.2, and in later available PCI Express bus. Some non-PCI
+//! architectures also use message signaled interrupts.
+//!
+//! While IRQ is a term commonly used by Operating Systems when dealing with hardware
+//! interrupts, the IRQ numbers managed by OSes are independent of the ones managed by VMM.
+//! For simplicity sake, the term `Interrupt Source` is used instead of IRQ to represent both pin-based
+//! interrupts and MSI interrupts.
+//!
+//! A device may support multiple types of interrupts, and each type of interrupt may support one
+//! or multiple interrupt sources. For example, a PCI device may support:
+//! * Legacy Irq: exactly one interrupt source.
+//! * PCI MSI Irq: 1,2,4,8,16,32 interrupt sources.
+//! * PCI MSIx Irq: 2^n(n=0-11) interrupt sources.
+//!
+//! A distinct Interrupt Source Identifier (ISID) will be assigned to each interrupt source.
+//! An ID allocator will be used to allocate and free Interrupt Source Identifiers for devices.
+//! To decouple the vm-device crate from the ID allocator, the vm-device crate doesn't take the
+//! responsibility to allocate/free Interrupt Source IDs but only makes use of assigned IDs.
