# Hardware tasks
At its core RTIC is using the hardware interrupt controller ([ARM NVIC on cortex-m][NVIC])
to perform scheduling and executing tasks, and all tasks except `#[init]` and `#[idle]`
run as interrupt handlers.
This also means that you can manually bind tasks to interrupt handlers.
To bind an interrupt use the `#[task]` attribute argument `binds = InterruptName`.
This task becomes the interrupt handler for this hardware interrupt vector.
All tasks bound to an explicit interrupt are *hardware tasks* since they
start execution in reaction to a hardware event.
Specifying a non-existing interrupt name will cause a compilation error. The interrupt names
are commonly defined by [PAC or HAL][pacorhal] crates.
[pacorhal]: https://docs.rust-embedded.org/book/start/registers.html
[NVIC]: https://developer.arm.com/documentation/100166/0001/Nested-Vectored-Interrupt-Controller/NVIC-functional-description/NVIC-interrupts
The example below demonstrates the use of the `#[task]` attribute to declare an
interrupt handler.
``` rust
{{#include ../../../../examples/hardware.rs}}
```
``` console
$ cargo run --target thumbv7m-none-eabi --example hardware
{{#include ../../../../ci/expected/hardware.run}}
```
