10.3.7 Software and Level n IACK Registers (SWIACKR, L1IACK–L7IACK)
The eight IACK registers can be explicitly addressed via the CPU, or implicitly addressed via a
processor-generated interrupt acknowledge cycle during exception processing. In either case, the interrupt
controller’s actions are very similar.
First, consider an IACK cycle to a specific level: that is, a level-n IACK. When this type of IACK arrives
in the interrupt controller, the controller examines all the currently-active level n interrupt requests,
determines the highest priority within the level, and then responds with the unique vector number
corresponding to that specific interrupt source. The vector number is supplied as the data for the byte-sized
IACK read cycle. In addition to providing the vector number, the interrupt controller also loads the level
and priority number for the level into the IACKLPR register, where it may be retrieved later.
This interrupt controller design also supports the concept of a software IACK. A software IACK is a useful
concept that allows an interrupt service routine to determine if there are other pending interrupts so that
the overhead associated with interrupt exception processing (including machine state save/restore
functions) can be minimized. In general, the software IACK is performed near the end of an interrupt
