Events and Interrupts

ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
Core Event Controller Registers
The Event Controller uses three MMRs to coordinate pending event
requests. In each of these MMRs, the 16 lower bits correspond to the 16
event levels (for example, bit 0 corresponds to “Emulator mode”). The
registers are:
•
IMASK
- interrupt mask
•
ILAT
- interrupt latch
•
IPEND
- interrupts pending
These three registers are accessible in Supervisor mode only.
IMASK Register
The Core Interrupt Mask register (
IMASK
) indicates which interrupt levels
are allowed to be taken. The
IMASK
register may be read and written in
Supervisor mode. Bits [15:5] have significance; bits [4:0] are hard-coded
to 1 and events of these levels are always enabled. If
IMASK[N] == 1
and
ILAT[N] == 1
, then interrupt
N
will be taken if a higher priority is not
already recognized. If
IMASK[N] == 0
, and
ILAT[N]
gets set by interrupt
N
,
the interrupt will not be taken, and
ILAT[N]
will remain set.
