A local interrupt can be generated to the CPU by the VME interface when it
detects a VMEbus IACK cycle for a VME interrupt that is pending. This interrupt
can be used to inform system software that the VMEbus interrupt request has
been serviced. The VIC interrupter interrupt control register (VME_IF_BASE +
0x00) provides enabling of priority encoding for this interrupt (Figure 10–16).

Field Name Description
<2:0> Priority Priority 1-7
<6:3> 1111
<7> Mask When set, no interrupt is generated.
The vector that is returned when the processor locally IACKs this interrupt comes
from the VIC error group interrupt vector register (VIC_EGIVBR) described in
Chapter 11.
