Suppose a tasklet(bottom half) process is running and an Interrupt occured and pre-empted the tasklet. The interrupt scheduled another tasklet of different type. The question is: Which tasklet will come into execution when the interrupt task completes?. In other words whether the pre-empted tasklet will resume its exec- ution or the newly scheduled tasklet will execute?
