5.2.10 Software Interrupt Request Register – SIRR

The software interrupt request register (SIRR) is a read-write register containing bits to request software interrupts. To generate a particular software interrupt, its correspond- ing bits in SIRR and IER[SIER] must both be set. Figure 5–17shows the software interrupt request register.
