Acknowledging Interrupts
Interrupt Handling
The PIC interrupt sequence involves three bits, from the IRR, ISR, and IMR, for each interrupt
level. These bits are used to determine the interrupt vector returned, and status of any other pending
interrupts.
The processor generates an interrupt acknowledge cycle that is translated by the host bridge into a
PCI Interrupt Acknowledge Cycle to the ICH6. The PIC translates this command into two internal
INTA# pulses expected by the 8259 cores. The PIC uses the first internal INTA# pulse to freeze the
state of the interrupts for priority resolution. On the second INTA# pulse, the master or slave sends
the interrupt vector to the processor with the acknowledged interrupt code. This code is based upon
bits [7:3] of the corresponding ICW2 register, combined with three bits representing the interrupt
within that controller.

Master, Slave Interrupt
Interrupt Request Register. This bit is set on a low to high transition of the interrupt line in edge
mode, and by an active high level in level mode. This bit is set whether or not the interrupt is
masked. However, a masked interrupt will not generate INTR.
Interrupt Service Register. This bit is set, and the corresponding IRR bit cleared, when an interrupt
acknowledge cycle is seen, and the vector returned is for that interrupt.
Interrupt Mask Register. This bit determines whether an interrupt is masked. Masked interrupts will
not generate INTR.
