--  This is the Alpha/VMS version of this package

--  This package encapsulates and centralizes information about all uses of
--  interrupts (or signals), including the target-dependent mapping of
--  interrupts (or signals) to exceptions.

--  PLEASE DO NOT add any with-clauses to this package

--  PLEASE DO NOT put any subprogram declarations with arguments of type
--  Interrupt_ID into the visible part of this package.

--  The type Interrupt_ID is used to derive the type in Ada.Interrupts, and
--  adding more operations to that type would be illegal according to the Ada
--  Reference Manual. (This is the reason why the signals sets below are
--  implemented as visible arrays rather than functions.)

--  used for Signal

package System.Interrupt_Management is
   pragma Preelaborate;

   type Interrupt_Mask is limited private;

   type Interrupt_ID is new System.OS_Interface.Signal;

   type Interrupt_Set is array (Interrupt_ID) of Boolean;

   --  The following objects serve as constants, but are initialized in the
   --  body to aid portability. This permits us to use more portable names for
   --  interrupts, where distinct names may map to the same interrupt ID
   --  value. For example, suppose SIGRARE is a signal that is not defined on
   --  all systems, but is always reserved when it is defined. If we have the
   --  convention that ID zero is not used for any "real" signals, and SIGRARE
   --  = 0 when SIGRARE is not one of the locally supported signals, we can
   --  write

   --     Reserved (SIGRARE) := true;

   --  Then the initialization code will be portable

   Abort_Task_Interrupt : Interrupt_ID;
   --  The interrupt that is used to implement task abort, if an interrupt is
   --  used for that purpose. This is one of the reserved interrupts.

   Keep_Unmasked : Interrupt_Set := (others => False);
   --  Keep_Unmasked (I) is true iff the interrupt I is one that must be kept
   --  unmasked at all times, except (perhaps) for short critical sections.
   --  This includes interrupts that are mapped to exceptions (see
   --  System.Interrupt_Exceptions.Is_Exception), but may also include
   --  interrupts (e.g. timer) that need to be kept unmasked for other
   --  reasons. Where interrupts are implemented as OS signals, and signal
   --  masking is per-task, the interrupt should be unmasked in ALL TASKS.

   Reserve : Interrupt_Set := (others => False);
   --  Reserve (I) is true iff the interrupt I is one that cannot be permitted
   --  to be attached to a user handler. The possible reasons are many. For
   --  example it may be mapped to an exception used to implement task abort.

   Keep_Masked : Interrupt_Set := (others => False);
   --  Keep_Masked (I) is true iff the interrupt I must always be masked.
   --  Where interrupts are implemented as OS signals, and signal masking is
   --  per-task, the interrupt should be masked in ALL TASKS. There might not
   --  be any interrupts in this class, depending on the environment. For
   --  example, if interrupts are OS signals and signal masking is per-task,
   --  use of the sigwait operation requires the signal be masked in all tasks.

   procedure Initialize;
   --  Initialize the various variables defined in this package.
   --  This procedure must be called before accessing any object from this
   --  package and can be called multiple times.

   --  a mailbox is that it is trivially extendable to cross process
