Reference for Software Interrupt Generation

[sagardhavali]

Hi,

I am looking for any reference which would explain how to go about software interrupt generation.

Thanks in advance,

Sagar

Ok, so you are looking for software-settable interrupt requests in Software vector mode handshaking.

Just to be clear.

here is a lost of available software-settable interrupt requests:

Configure the INTC for interrupt requests:

interrupt_request_initialization:
Configure HVENn in INTC_BCR.
Configure VTBAn in INTC_IACKRn.
Raise the PRIn fields and set the PRC_SELn fields to the desired processor in INTC_PSRn.
Set the enable bits or clear the mask bits for the peripheral interrupt requests.
Lower PRI in INTC_CPRn to zero.

Enable processor(s) recognition of interrupts.

now you can trigger your software-settable interrupt by setting it in INTC Software Set/Clear Interrupt Register (INTC_SSCIRn).

It is the same as for peripheral interrupts, but you pull request by software.

thats all,

Peter

Hi,

To save your time you could simply check examples on community in quick links:

Hi Peter,

I was looking for something where I can generate the software interrupt at will and not the same triggered by some event.

Is there anything like that? 

I know a way. Tell me if I am right.

Section 21.7.7.1of programmer reference manual, there is mention of something.
