16.4.2.6.6 Interrupt Evaluate Register (IEVAL)
The interrupt evaluate register (IEVAL) is the only register that physically exists in both the global region
and the shadow regions. In other words, the read/write accessibility for the shadow region IEVAL is not
affected by the DMA/QDMA region access registers (DRAEm and QRAEm). IEVAL is needed for robust
ISR operations to ensure that interrupts are not missed by the CPU.
The IEVAL is shown in Figure 16-75 and described in Table 16-54.

Bit Field Value Description
31-2 Reserved 0 Reserved
1 Reserved 0 Reserved. Always write 0 to this bit; writes of 1 to this bit are not supported and attempts to do so may
result in undefined behavior.
0 EVAL Interrupt evaluate.
0 No effect.
1 Causes EDMA3CC completion interrupt to be pulsed, if any enabled (IERn = 1) interrupts are still
pending (IPRn = 1).
The EDMA3CC completion region interrupt that is pulsed depends on which IEVAL is being exercised.
For example, writing to the EVAL bit in IEVAL0 pulses the region 0 completion interrupt, but writing to
the EVAL bit in IEVAL1 pulses the region 1 completion interrupt.
