Hi:

1. The AIRCR reset value is 0xFA050000 and PRIGROUP, bits[10:8], is b000 which value is not defeined in UM10360's table 661.
2. Or Does it mean that PRIGROUP need to be set after reset rather than use default value?

You can leave it at the default value of 0.
This means that any interrupt of a higher priority can preempt any interrupt of lower priority, which is what you want most of the time.

(Has anybody ever needed interrupt priority grouping?)

AIRCR is a core register, so it is documented in the ARM documents for Cortex-M3 (e.g. "Cortex-M3 Devices Generic User Guide", DUI0552), or in the excellent book "The Definitive Guide to ARM Cortex -M3 and Cortex-M4 Processors" by Joseph Yiu.

Thank, I check the DUI0552 however the table 4-18 which setting is different to UM10360's table 661.

table 661

Refer to DUI0552, PRIGROUP determines the split of group priority from subpriority. If follow table4-18, the b000 is fine for device but table 661 also mentioned that Bits [2:0] are not used in LPC176x/5x devices. I wonder that NXP change the core register design or it's just a document problem. I still confused that which Binary point or format is correct for LPC176x/5x.

It's normal that NXP implements only 5 bits for interrupt priorities, anything between 3 and 8 bits is possible (see DUI552, section A-1 Cortex-M3 Implementation Options).
With only 5 bits implemented the values b000 and b001 would have the same effect as b010, so NXP didn't document them.

I got the point. Thanks for clarifying
