Interrupts (IRQ)
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
The interrupt vector is set to memory address ``0`` (bottom of SRAM).
|
|
The program counter switches to this location when an interrupt is received.
|
|
To enable interrupts, it is necessary to copy an interrupt handler to memory location ``0``.
|
|
The `PicoRV32 <https://github.com/cliffordwolf/picorv32>`_ defines 32 IRQ channels, of which the Caravel chip uses only a handful, as described in the :ref:`cpu_irq_channel_definitions`.
|
|
All IRQ channels not in the :ref:`cpu_irq_channel_definitions` always have value zero.

|
|
The Caravel PicoRV32 implementation does not enable IRQ QREGS (see `PicoRV32 description <https://github.com/cliffordwolf/picorv32>`__).
|
|
|
|
The handling of interrupts is beyond the scope of this document
|
|
(see `RISC-V instruction set description <https://riscv.org/technical/specifications/>`_).
|
|
All interrupts are masked and must be enabled in software.
