No, having the masking done in two functions shows clearly what needs to be done. Also, Primis, please make sure any edits you make are actually correct. I have reverted your "fix" to the IRQ number checks.

Well there are 8 IRC lines per PIC, but they start at zero, so the first PIC is 0 ... 7 and the second is 8 ... 15. However the function is not Greater than or Equal to (>=) but is just greater than (>) so the function is gonna be out of sync no? [[User:Primis|Primis]] 01:55, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Masking

Shouldn't the masking function be in one function? Also, shouldn't we have a topic about all the registers of the PIC? Primis 19:53, 27 February 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
