 DESCRIPTION:
-    This directive temporarily enables maskable interrupts to the ``level``
-    which was returned by a previous call to ``rtems_interrupt_disable``.
-    Immediately prior to invoking this directive, maskable interrupts should be
-    disabled by a call to ``rtems_interrupt_disable`` and will be redisabled
-    when this directive returns to the caller.
+    This directive is functionally equivalent to a
+    ``rtems_interrupt_enable( level )`` immediately followed by a
+    ``rtems_interrupt_disable( level )``.  On some
+    architectures it is possible to provide an optimized implementation for
+    this sequence.
 
 NOTES:
     This directive will not cause the calling task to be preempted.

+    ``rtems_interrupt_local_enable`` is available in all configurations.

+    Historically, the interrupt flash function was heavily used in the
+    operating system implementation.  However, this is no longer the case.  The
+    interrupt flash function is provided for backward compatibility reasons.
