Plug a null-modem-cable between two serial ports (both config'd as 16450 at highest baud-rate) and see whether what you put out one of them arrives at the other end. Should generate quite a few interrupts. (of course you could short-circuit a pty-pair with a FIFO as well, but that wouldn't generate hardware interrupts)
