machine code : disabling interupts ?

[User 10929916]

Ok so I've read that there are some instructions that do things that enable/disable interupts,etc are these the so-called priviledged instructions ?? do you know if there is a list with all those "strange" instructions ?

You need to get a copy of the hardware reference for the system or processor that you wish to work with. And, yes they are privileged instructions so you can only use them inside the kernel.

I guessm there is å little chip that makes up for this problems. Its like pribters, if you take out one of the chipset( i am not an expert) the printer wsttart working sagain. So if it is posssible to have this interuptys i hues its possible to reverse them
