2.18.23 IECTL_REG—Invalidation Event Control Register
This register specifies the invalidation event interrupt control bits.
This register is treated as RsvdZ by implementations reporting Queued Invalidation
(QI) as not supported in the Extended Capability register.

Interrupt Mask (IM)
0 = No masking of interrupt. When an invalidation event
0 = No masking of interrupt. When an invalidation event
condition is detected, hardware issues an interrupt message
(using the Invalidation Event Data & Invalidation Event
Address register values).
1 = This is the value on reset. Software may mask interrupt
message generation by setting this field. Hardware is
prohibited from sending the interrupt message when this
field is set.

Interrupt Pending (IP)
Hardware sets the IP field whenever it detects an interrupt
Hardware sets the IP field whenever it detects an interrupt
condition. Interrupt condition is defined as:
• An Invalidation Wait Descriptor with Interrupt Flag (IF) field
set completed, setting the IWC field in the Invalidation
Completion Status register.
• If the IWC field in the Invalidation Completion Status register
was already set at the time of setting this field, it is not
treated as a new interrupt condition.
The IP field is kept set by hardware while the interrupt message
is held pending. The interrupt message could be held pending
due to interrupt mask (IM field) being set, or due to other
transient hardware conditions. The IP field is cleared by hardware
as soon as the interrupt message pending condition is serviced.
This could be due to either:
• Hardware issuing the interrupt message due to either change
in the transient hardware condition that caused interrupt
message to be held pending or due to software clearing the
IM field.
• Software servicing the IWC field in the Invalidation
Completion Status register.
