The VME host reads this register to determine the state of the HINT lines from each processor node. Each bit corresponds to one of the four processor nodes. The state of the bit is simply a reflection of the HINT bit value in the corresponding ‘C6x HPIC register. A “1” in the bit position indicates that the corresponding ‘C6x processor has requested an interrupt.
HINT_A | Bit D0 is set to “1” when node A is requesting a host interrupt. |
HINT_B | Bit D1 is set to “1” when node B is requesting a host interrupt. |
HINT_C | Bit D2 is set to “1” when node C is requesting a host interrupt. |
HINT_D | Bit D3 is set to “1” when node D is requesting a host interrupt. |
This read only register is accessed from the VME A24 bus. It is located at offset 1000h from the base address set by jumper JP1 (A23..A17).
