NVIC - Defining software interrupt

Hi ,

I want to add a new interrupt to the system , i know that the NVIC can support up to 256 interrupts , currently in my evaluation boad ( stm32f4g-eval) there are only 81 used .

So i added a new one here :

.word DMA2_Stream7_IRQHandler /* DMA2 Stream 7 */

.word USART6_IRQHandler /* USART6 */

.word I2C3_EV_IRQHandler /* I2C3 event */

.word I2C3_ER_IRQHandler /* I2C3 error */

.word OTG_HS_EP1_OUT_IRQHandler /* USB OTG HS End Point 1 Out */

.word OTG_HS_EP1_IN_IRQHandler /* USB OTG HS End Point 1 In */

.word OTG_HS_WKUP_IRQHandler /* USB OTG HS Wakeup through EXTI */

.word OTG_HS_IRQHandler /* USB OTG HS */

.word DCMI_IRQHandler /* DCMI */

.word CRYP_IRQHandler /* CRYP crypto */

.word HASH_RNG_IRQHandler /* Hash and Rng */

.word FPU_IRQHandler /* FPU */

.word TTS_IRQHandler /* 070813 - TTS IRQ Handler */ < - the new one , his id will be 82

Also added weak aliasing just in case :

.weak OTG_HS_EP1_IN_IRQHandler

.thumb_set OTG_HS_EP1_IN_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak OTG_HS_WKUP_IRQHandler

.thumb_set OTG_HS_WKUP_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak OTG_HS_IRQHandler

.thumb_set OTG_HS_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak DCMI_IRQHandler

.thumb_set DCMI_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak CRYP_IRQHandler

.thumb_set CRYP_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak HASH_RNG_IRQHandler

.thumb_set HASH_RNG_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak FPU_IRQHandler

.thumb_set FPU_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

.weak TTS_IRQHandler

.thumb_set TTS_IRQHandler,Default_Handler

And offcourse added a function that will handle the interrupt :

void TTS_IRQHandler(void)

{

}

Then from main i do the following steps :

NVIC_SetPriority(82,100);

NVIC_EnableIRQ(82);

NVIC_SetPendingIRQ(82);

And nothing happens , but doing the same thing on one of previously defined interrupt handler (for example :

FPU_IRQHandler

) , i really do receive the interrupt as expected , what i am missing here ?

Thanks

Where do you have this information from?

NVIC as an IP component can support up to 256 interrupts, but NVIC as implemented in STM32F40x/41x supports 82 interrupts.

Posted on August 08, 2013 at 10:14 Yes you are correct , i was looking into the General Cortex M4 guide . but when looking into the reference guide of the evaluation board , i still see that i can use up to 86 interrupts (STM32F407IG) and now only 81 is currently used , so it should work .

82 maskable interrupt channels for STM32F40x and STM32F41x, and up to 86<

Thanks Michael

As yourself quoted it:


 > 86 
maskable interrupt channels for STM32F42x and STM32F43x

so it's 82 for the '407 you are using. And they are numbered 0.. JW
