I think the issue is that there are lots of small critical sections scattered all over the place that mask interrupts in the CPU, and they currently mask both IRQ and FIQ. For the ARM, HAL_*_INTERRUPTS uses 0xC0 to manipulate both these bits. If all eCos ISRs are invoked via IRQ, and FIQ is reserved for a special bit of driver code that merely adds functionality to a piece of hardware (like adding a FIFO to a serial port) without invoking a DSR, then these macros really ought to use 0x80 instead. That would be a useful CDL option. -- Ciao, Paul D.
