re-enable specific hardware interrupts at start of DSP/BIOS timer-tick

Started by Unknown March 3, 2004
How can we re-enable specific hardware interrupts at start of
DSP/BIOS timer-tick
ISR?

Our situation is that we need to respond to McBSP0 Rx and Tx
interrupts within 15
usec, but in some cases the DSP/BIOS timer tick ISR occurs very
close to the McBSP
interrupt, and the timer-tick ISR then takes more than 15 usec to
run. When that
happens, the serial port words we need to read/write are already
shifted out.

Our McBSP bit rate is 1.024 Mbps minimum, but can be as high as
6.144 Mbps. At the
higher rate we have only about 2.5 usec to respond.

Thanks in advance!
