#179967 - Often three layers of enable
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Note that for many ARM, you actually have three different levels of interrupt activation.

1) The specific devices.
2) The interrupt channels in the VIC.
3) The interrupt enable/disable for IRQ/FIQ in the processor core.

[ARM] Default state of interrupts            01/01/70 00:00      
   Normally vectorized interrupt controller            01/01/70 00:00      
      but isn't this the case with ALL microcontrollers?            01/01/70 00:00      
         Often three layers of enable            01/01/70 00:00      
            This is the case here (LPC17xx)...            01/01/70 00:00      
               May vary a lot            01/01/70 00:00      
      Not the case anymore for Cortex-M3s.            01/01/70 00:00      
   Startup code?            01/01/70 00:00      
      not startup code, but the after-reset state            01/01/70 00:00      
         Hw-acceleration            01/01/70 00:00      
   According to the datasheet of my CM3 ...            01/01/70 00:00      
      ... but if we dig deeper to the datasheets...            01/01/70 00:00
