In general, most CPUs have a "disable interrupts" flag which is set at the same time as calling the irq handler. That's enough, even if everything about interrupts is level triggered, so you can't assume anything is edge triggered just from that alone. However if a CPU doesn't have an "disable interrupts" flag, then of course the triggering must be edge triggered somewhere. -- Jamie
