Apparatus for transferring interrupts form a peripheral device to a host computer system is described. The apparatus comprises a buffer for storing indications of interrupts generated by the peripheral device. In response to a preset condition being met, a controller generates a control data block having a payload portion, moves the contents of the buffer to the payload poriton of the control data block, and sends the control data block to the host computer system.
