Like the PIE, the CPU provides flag and enable register bits for each of its interrupts. There is one enable register (IER) and one flag register (IFR), both of which are internal CPU registers. There is also a global interrupt mask, which is controlled by the INTM bit in the ST1 register. This mask can be set and cleared using the CPU's SETC instruction. In C code, controlSUITE's DINT and EINT macros can be used for this purpose.
Writes to IER and INTM are atomic operations. In particular, if INTM is cleared, the next instruction in the pipeline runs with interrupts disabled. No software delays are needed.
