I agree that disabling interrupts is the correct way to avoid new interruptions. But you need to clear them before.

Disabling interrupts doesn't stop the flag being set, it just stops the interruption points acting on it. There is thus no need to clear the flag. If you want to call code with an interruption point without being interrupted, disable interruptions. Whether or not the flag is set beforehand, or set during the call is now irrelevant. It may or may not be set at the end of the block either way.

Thanks for the correction. Vicente
