downarrowRMTarget does not re-enable IRQs correctly
Applies to: Assembler, RealMonitor

This is fixed in AFS 1.4.
There is an error in the source code for RMTarget 1.0 that will sometimes cause IRQs to remain disabled when the foreground application is stopped. The effect of this is disrupt communication between the target and host, resulting in "RDI Warning 00200: Data link timeout error". To fix this, you must perform the following steps:

1) In the Sources/rm_asm.s file, locate the following text:

        ; Re-enable IRQs if they are enabled in the SPSR.
        MRS     a4, SPSR
        TST     a4, #PSR_IRQ_BIT
        MRSEQ   ip, CPSR
        BICEQ   ip, ip, #PSR_IRQ_BIT
        MSREQ   CPSR_f, ip
        ; IRQS NOW ENABLED.

2) Change the fields of the MSREQ instruction from '_f' to '_c', as follows:

        ; Re-enable IRQs if they are enabled in the SPSR.
        MRS     a4, SPSR
        TST     a4, #PSR_IRQ_BIT
        MRSEQ   ip, CPSR
        BICEQ   ip, ip, #PSR_IRQ_BIT
        MSREQ   CPSR_c, ip
        ; IRQS NOW ENABLED.
