Abstract
A method, processor, and computer system for handling interrupts within a hierarchical register structure. The method includes receiving at a root-level register an indication of an interrupt occurring at a lower level register in the register structure, using a system interrupt handler to invoke an error handler assigned to a set of registers of the structure that includes the lower level register, and using the invoked error handler to handle the interrupt and return to the system interrupt handler.
