Software Interrupt Generation Register — SINTGENR
The Software Interrupt Generation Register is a 32-bit co-processor register that can
be used by a core to initiate an interrupt to another core in the system, including itself.
This is done by specifying a coreID and an interrupt source number (ISN). The
generated interrupt is posted in the Inter-Processor Interrupt Pending Register —
IPIPNDR. Refer to the Interrupt Controller Unit Chapter.
