Figure 4-9. Interrupt Request Masking
4.2.4 Interrupt Vector Generation and Calculation
Pending unmasked interrupts are presented to the core in order of priority. The interrupt vector that allows
the core to locate the interrupt service routine is made available to the core by reading SIVEC. The
interrupt controller passes an interrupt vector corresponding to the highest-priority, unmasked, pending
interrupt. Table 4-3 lists encodings for the six low-order bits of the interrupt vector.
