10. Interrupt Completion
The PLIC signals it has completed executing an interrupt handler by
writing the interrupt ID it received from the claim to the
claim/complete register. The PLIC does not check whether the
completion ID is the same as the last claim ID for that target. If the
completion ID does not match an interrupt source that is *currently
enabled* for the target, the completion is silently *ignored*.
How do you think about *currently enabled* & *silently ignored*?
