stm32f427 uart4 interrupts generated without flags

In my programm I use uart4 with 115200 baud. I want to receive data from devices - so I configure UART in RxMode.  I enebled only one interrupt source for it

USART_ITConfig(UART4, USART_IT_RXNE, ENABLE); My interrupt handler looks like this:void UART4_IRQHandler(void) {   Uart_SR = UART4->SR;   Uart_CR1 = UART4->CR1;   Uart_CR2 = UART4->CR2;   Uart_CR3 = GPS_USART->CR3;   if(USART_GetITStatus(UART4_USART, USART_IT_RXNE) != RESET)   {     char symb;     symb = USART_ReceiveData(UART4) & 0xFF;     DummyCntr1++;   }   if(USART_GetITStatus(UART4, USART_IT_TXE) != RESET)   {     /* Write one byte to the transmit data register */     DummyCntr4++;   }   DummyCntr5++; }

Some time

the data was successfully

received.

But

then

something strange

happens

.

All

CPU time

UART4

interrupt handler

is executed

(except for

higher-priority

interrupts handlers

)

, while the

interrupt flags

are reseted.

  Uart_SR, Uart_CR1, Uart_CR2, Uart_CR3 variables transmitted via CAN, and there values are: 0x1D8, 0x2024, 0x0, 0x0

respectively

. Also DummyCntr's transmitted and only DummyCntr5 grows up. So in CR1 only RXNEIE bit installed, in SR RXNE bit is cleared - why interrupt handler executed? What have I missed? #uart-interrupt-stm32f4

Does seem a bit odd

if(USART_GetITStatus(UART4_USART, USART_IT_RXNE) != RESET) Why UART4_USART rather than UART4?

You're absolutely right

, but it is

not the fault of

the program -

I was wrong

edited the

code

of

the program

in the post

: I tried to

replace

the program

macros

by their values

​​.

The program

has

a macro

like this

#define GPS_USART UART4

I just

replaced the

macro name

with its value

.

So

really

, the line looks

like this:

if(USART_GetITStatus (GPS_USART, USART_IT_RXNE)! = RESET)
