53.3.2.3. Interrupt Mask Register
The Interrupt Mask register provides a masking bit to individual Status bit before the Status is used to generate level interrupt output. Having the masking bit set, disregards the corresponding Status bit from causing interrupt output.
Upon reset, the default value of Interrupt Mask register is 0, which means every single data word address location is disabled for interrupt generation. To enable interrupt generation from a dedicated message entry location, the associated Mask bit needs to be set to ‘1’.
The following table illustrates the Interrupt Mask register field.
Field Name | Bit Location |
---|---|
Masking bit for Status [31:0] | 31:0 |
