Hi, I am trying to generate an IRQ on the at91sam7x using the AIC, however the AIC_ISCR (Interrupt Set Command Register) does not seem to work. I expect that writing to this register would trigger an interrupt from the given PID, as long as that PID is in edge-sensitive mode (see the at91sam7x preliminary for the AIC's operation details). However, the following code does not work as expected, (i.e.
Line @ 4.A should not run! )
What's the deal?
Code:
/*
* Script that SHOULD generate an interrupt using the AIC,
* but WHY doesn't it?
* For at91sam7x256 ( olimex sam7-ex256 )
*/
