AT91X40 Series
The hardware interrupt vectoring reduces the number of instructions to reach the inter-
rupt handler to only one. By storing the following instruction at address 0x00000018, the
processor loads the program counter with the interrupt handler address stored in the
AIC_IVR register. Execution is then vectored to the interrupt handler corresponding to
the current interrupt.
The current interrupt is the interrupt with the highest priority when the Interrupt Vector
Register (AIC_IVR) is read. The value read in the AIC_IVR corresponds to the address
stored in the Source Vector Register (AIC_SVR) of the current interrupt. Each interrupt
source has its corresponding AIC_SVR. In order to take advantage of the hardware
interrupt vectoring it is necessary to store the address of each interrupt handler in the
corresponding AIC_SVR, at system initialization.
The NIRQ line is controlled by an 8-level priority encoder. Each source has a program-
mable priority level of 7 to 0. Level 7 is the highest priority and level 0 the lowest.
When the AIC receives more than one unmasked interrupt at a time, the interrupt with
the highest priority is serviced first. If both interrupts have equal priority, the interrupt
with the lowest interrupt source number (see table 8) is serviced first.
The current priority level is defined as the priority level of the current interrupt at the time
the register AIC_IVR is read (the interrupt which will be serviced).
In the case when a higher priority unmasked interrupt occurs while an interrupt already
exists, there are two possible outcomes depending on whether the AIC_IVR has been
read.

When the end of interrupt command register (AIC_EOICR) is written the current inter-
rupt level is updated with the last stored interrupt level from the stack (if any). Hence at
the end of a higher priority interrupt, the AIC returns to the previous state corresponding
to the preceding lower priority interrupt which had been interrupted.
The interrupt handler must read the AIC_IVR as soon as possible. This de-asserts the
NIRQ request to the processor and clears the interrupt in case it is programmed to be
edge triggered. This permits the AIC to assert the NIRQ line again when a higher priority
unmasked interrupt occurs.
At the end of the interrupt service routine, the end of interrupt command register
(AIC_EOICR) must be written. This allows pending interrupts to be serviced.
Each interrupt source, including FIQ, can be enabled or disabled using the command
registers AIC_IECR and AIC_IDCR. The interrupt mask can be read in the read only
register AIC_IMR. A disabled interrupt does not affect the servicing of other interrupts.
ldr PC,[PC,# - &F20]
If the NIRQ line has been asserted but the AIC_IVR has not been read, then the
processor will read the new higher priority interrupt handler address in the AIC_IVR
register and the current interrupt level is updated.
If the processor has already read the AIC_IVR then the NIRQ line is reasserted.
When the processor has authorized nested interrupts to occur and reads the
AIC_IVR again, it reads the new, higher priority interrupt handler address. At the
same time the current priority value is pushed onto a first-in last-out stack and the
current priority is updated to the higher priority.
