[5:24][@miblo][Haha! I noticed myself doing that and wanted to break the same habit! (Without success, I think)]
[6:09][:Research the Machine Status Register][:hardware]
[8:32][Consult demo_gpio.c and plic_driver.c and wonder what the machine-external and machine-timer interrupts bits are doing][:hardware :research]
[12:08][Wonder also why we have a separate Coreplex-Local Interrupts controller][:hardware]
[14:35][Continue reading about the machine-mode status register (mstatus)][:hardware :research]
[20:27][Summarise how the mie bit in the mstatus register is being used][:hardware :research]
[21:36][Read about privilege levels][:hardware :research]
[24:32][Determine that the PLIC only handles global interrupts, and read about local interrupt sources][:hardware :research]
[28:01][Read about Interrupt Targets and Hart Contexts][:hardware :research]
[29:19][Consult the PLIC diagram][:blackboard :hardware :research]
[31:00][Continue reading about the interrupts in terms of the mip][:hardware :research]
[39:47][Note that PLIC_enable_interrupt() and PLIC_disable_interrupt() happen on a per-thread basis][:hardware :research :threading]
[41:58][Review the documentation on Machine Interrupt Registers (mip and mie)][:hardware :research]
[46:53][Consult the table on mstatus and consider the difference between mip and mie][:hardware :research]
[49:01][Return to demo_gpio.c, note that the clear_csr() calls in reset_demo() are not disabling software interrupts, and consider asking why][:research]
[53:44][Skim over demo_gpio.c in general][:research]
[55:15][@tenbroya][Heyo]
[55:57][@tenbroya][(it's James from the HMN IRC)]
