ALLINT, All Interrupt Mask Bit

The ALLINT characteristics are:

Purpose

Allows access to the all interrupt mask bit.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_NMI is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to ALLINT are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

ALLINT is a 64-bit register.

Bits [63:14]

Reserved, RES0.

ALLINT, bit [13]

All interrupt mask. An interrupt is controlled by PSTATE.ALLINT when all of the following apply:

ALLINTMeaning
0b0

This control does not cause any interrupts to be masked.

0b1

If SCTLR_ELx.NMI is 1 and execution is at ELx, an IRQ or FIQ interrupt that is targeted to ELx, with or without Superpriority, is masked.

The value of this bit is set to the inverse value in the SCTLR_ELx.SPINTMASK field on taking an exception to ELx.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Bits [12:0]

Reserved, RES0.

Accessing ALLINT

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
