Interrupt Status Register
Shows the pending status of the IRQ and FIQ interrupts and the SError exceptions.
AArch32 System register ISR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register ISR_EL1[31:0].
This register is present only when FEAT_AA32EL1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to ISR are UNDEFINED.
ISR is a 32-bit register.

SError exception pending bit:
| A | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
No pending SError exception. |
| 0b1 |
An SError exception is pending. |
If all of the following apply then this field shows the pending status of virtual SError exceptions:
Otherwise, this field shows the pending status of physical SError exceptions.
If the SError exception is edge-triggered, this field is cleared to zero when the physical SError exception is taken.
IRQ pending bit. Indicates whether an IRQ interrupt is pending:
| I | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
No pending IRQ. |
| 0b1 |
An IRQ interrupt is pending. |
If all of the following apply then this field shows the pending status of virtual IRQ interrupts:
Otherwise, this field shows the pending status of physical IRQ interrupts.
FIQ pending bit. Indicates whether an FIQ interrupt is pending.
| F | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
No pending FIQ. |
| 0b1 |
An FIQ interrupt is pending. |
If all of the following apply then this field shows the pending status of virtual FIQ interrupts:
Otherwise, this field shows the pending status of physical FIQ interrupts.
Reserved, RES0.
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
MRC{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
(coproc = 0b1111, opc1 = 0b000, CRn = 0b1100, CRm = 0b0001, opc2 = 0b000)
if !IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_AA32EL1) then UNDEFINED; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL0 then UNDEFINED; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL1 then if EL2Enabled() && IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_AA64EL2) && !ELUsingAArch32(EL2) && HSTR_EL2.T12 == '1' then AArch64.AArch32SystemAccessTrap(EL2, 0x03); elsif EL2Enabled() && IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_AA32EL2) && ELUsingAArch32(EL2) && HSTR.T12 == '1' then AArch32.TakeHypTrapException(0x03); else R[t] = ISR; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL2 then R[t] = ISR; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL3 then R[t] = ISR;
