interrupt will be unmasked. Bit 0 of the mask byte corresponds to VIa. on the
bus, and Bit 7 corresponds to VI7* on the bus. This is the same as sending OCWl
to the interrupt controller (see the 8259A application note in the appendix of
this document for more information).

DESCRIPTION: This command is used to send an End-of-Interrupt Command to the
8259A interrupt controller. It is also useful for rotating the interrupt prior-
ity levels. The byte to be sent to the 8259A Is passed in Parameter Byte O.
This is equivalent to sending OCW2 to the 8259~ For more information on what
this byte does to the 8259A, refer to the 8259A application note contained in
the appendix of this document.

DESCRIPTION: This command is used to read the contents of the Interrupt Request
(IR) and In Service (IS) registers in the 8259~ It returns the contents of the
lR register in the Result 1 Byte location and the contents of the IS register in
the Result 2 Byte location. For more information on the meaning of the IS and
lR registers, see the 8259A application note in the appendix of this document.
