ALTD ("A" Column) Symbol Key ALTD selects alternate flags
ALTD selects alternate flags and register
ALTD selects alternate register
ALTD operation is a special case
IOI and IOE ("I" Column) Symbol Key IOI and IOE affect source and destination
IOI and IOE affect destination

1 The L/V (logical/overflow) flag serves a dual purpose--L/V is set to 1 for logical operations if any of the four most significant bits of the result are 1, and L/V is reset to 0 if all four of the most significant bits of the result are 0.

(Adr[19:16] = A[3:0])Note that the LDP instructions wrap around on a 64K page boundary. Since the LDP instruction operates on two-byte values, the second byte will wrap around and be written at the start of the page if you try to read or write across a page boundary. Thus, if you fetch or store at address 0xn,0xFFFF, you will get the bytes located at 0xn,0xFFFF and 0xn,0x0000 instead of 0xn,0xFFFFand 0x(n+1),0x0000 as you might expect. Therefore, do not use LDP at any physical address ending in 0xFFFF.

Add 1 clock for each iteration for the prefix if the prefix is IOI (internal I/O). If the prefix is IOE, add 2 clocks plus the number of I/O wait states enabled. The V flag is set when BC transitions from 1 to 0. If the V flag is not set another step is performed for the repeating versions of the instructions. Interrupts can occur between different repeats, but not within an iteration equivalent to LDD or LDI. Return from the interrupt is to the first byte of the instruction which is the I/O prefix byte if there is one.

SCF 2 f - - - 1 CF = 118.19 Privileged Instructions
The privileged instructions are described in this section. Privilege means that an interrupt cannot take place between the privileged instruction and the following instruction.
The three instructions below are privileged.
LD SP,HL ; load the stack pointer
LD SP,IY
LD SP,IXThe instructions to load the stack are privileged so that they can be followed by an instruction to load the stack segment (SSEG) register without the danger of an interrupt taking place with and incorrect association between the stack pointer and the stack segment register. For example,
LD SP,HL
IOI LD (STACKSEG),AThe following instructions are privileged.
IPSET 0 ; shift IP left and set priority 00 in bits 1,0
IPSET 1
IPSET 2
IPSET 3
IPRES ; rotate IP right 2 bits, restoring previous priority
POP IP ; pop IP register from stackThe instructions to modify the IP register are privileged so that they can be followed by a return instructions that is guaranteed to execute before another interrupt takes place. This avoids the possibility of an ever-growing stack.
RETI ; pops IP from stack and then pops return addressThe instruction reti can be used to set both the return address and the IP in a single instruction. If preceded by a LD XPC, a complete jump or call to a computed address can be done with no possible interrupt.
LD A,XPC ; get and set the XPC
LD XPC,AThe instruction LD XPC,A is privileged so that it can be followed by other code setting interrupt priority or program counter without an intervening interrupt.
BIT B,(HL) ; test a bit in memoryThe instruction bit B,(HL) is privileged to make it possible to implement a semaphore without disabling interrupts. The following sequence is used. A bit is a semaphore, and the first task to set the bit owns the semaphore and has a right to manipulate the resources associated with the semaphore.
BIT B,(HL)
SET B,(HL)
JP z,ihaveit
; here I don't have itThe SET instruction has no effect on the flags. Since no interrupt takes place after the BIT instruction, if the flag is zero that means that the semaphore was not set when tested by the bit instruction and that the set instruction has set the semaphore. If an interrupt was allowed between the BIT and set instructions, another routine could set the semaphore and two routines could think that they both owned the semaphore.
