1. A processing device, comprising:
an interface configured to receive information about an operation state of a surrogate processing circuitry; and
processing circuitry configured to control the interface and to decide whether an interrupt addressed to the processing circuitry is processed by the processing circuitry or redirected to the surrogate processing circuitry based on an operation state of the processing circuitry and the surrogate processing circuitry, wherein the processing circuitry is further configured to track a rate of interrupts addressed to the processing circuitry and to end the redirection in dependency of the rate of interrupts.
