  I know there is set_intr_gate(n,addr) which is used to insert an
interrupt gate in the n th IDT entry. But I don't know what the usage
of set_intr_gate_ist()?

The same, while setting the "Interrupt STack" field of the descriptor to "ist". This field is a 64-bit only field, implementing a hardware stack switch. Look for it in the AMD64 docs.
