If the process state registers are referred to without subscripts then the current priority

is implied.

3.1.2

Other machine registers

There are several other registers which the programmer should know about, but which

are not part of the process state. These are presented in Table 3.3.

Enables register

The Enables register contains:

• TrapEnables bits (0..15) which can be used to control the taking of traps;

• GlobalInterruptEnables bits (16..31) which are used to control timeslicing and

interruptibility. These are normally set to 1.

Bits of

TrapEnables may be set using the trapenb instruction and cleared using

trapdis. Bits of GlobalInterruptEnables may be set using the instruction gintenb and

disabled using

gintdis.

The contents of the Enables register are shown in Table 3.4.

ClockEnables

ClockEnables is a pair of flags which enab le the timers ClockReg to tick. Bit zero of

ClockEnables controls ClockReg[0] and bit 1 controls ClockReg[1]. In each case,
