This register contains the interrupt mask bits corresponding to the
interrupting conditions described in the

DMA Status (DSTAT)

register. An

interrupt is masked by clearing the appropriate mask bit. Masking an
interrupt prevents INTA/ (for Function A) or INTB/ (for Function B) from
being asserted for the corresponding interrupt, but the status bit is still
set in the

DMA Status (DSTAT)

register. Masking an interrupt does not

prevent setting the

Interrupt Status Zero (ISTAT0)

DIP. All DMA interrupts

are considered fatal, therefore SCRIPTS stops running when this
condition occurs, whether or not the interrupt is masked. Setting a mask
bit enables the assertion of INTA/, or INTB/, for the corresponding
interrupt. (A masked nonfatal interrupt does not prevent unmasked or
fatal interrupts from getting through; interrupt stacking begins when either
the

Interrupt Status Zero (ISTAT0)

SIP or DIP bit is set.)
