Table 5–7 describes the interrupt summary register fields.
5.2.12 Hardware Interrupt Clear Register – HW_INT_CLR
The hardware interrupt clear register (HW_INT_CLR) is a write-only register used to
clear edge-sensitive interrupt requests. See Section D.31 for more information about the
PALcode restriction concerning this register. Figure 5–19 shows the hardware interrupt
clear register.

ASTU, ASTS [10],[9] RO AST Interrupts
For each processor mode, the bit is set if an associated AST
interrupt is pending. This includes the mode’s ASTER and
ASTRR bits and whether the processor mode value held in the
IER_CM register is greater than or equal to the value for the
mode.

For each processor mode, the bit is set if an associated AST
interrupt is pending. This includes the mode’s ASTER and
ASTRR bits and whether the processor mode value held in the
IER_CM register is greater than or equal to the value for the
mode.
