So perhaps:

  EXC_SYSTEM_RESET
  EXC_MACHINE_CHECK
  EXC_DATA_STORAGE
  EXC_DATA_SEGMENT
  EXC_INST_STORAGE
  EXC_INST_SEGMENT
  EXC_EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT
  EXC_ALIGNMENT
  EXC_PROGRAM_CHECK
  EXC_FP_UNAVAILABLE
  EXC_DECREMENTER
  EXC_HV_DECREMENTER
  EXC_SYSTEM_CALL
  EXC_HV_DATA_STORAGE
  EXC_PERF_MONITOR

These are interrupt (vectors), not exceptions.  It doesn't matter all
that much, but confusing things more isn't useful either!  There can be
multiple exceptions that all can trigger the same interrupt.

 When looking at the reference manual of e500 and e600 from NXP

 official, they call them as interrupts.While looking at the "The
Programming Environments"
 that is also from NXP, they call them exceptions. Looks like there is
 no explicit distinction between interrupts and exceptions.

Here are the links for the reference manual of e600 and e500:
https://www.nxp.com.cn/docs/en/reference-manual/E600CORERM.pdf
https://www.nxp.com/files-static/32bit/doc/ref_manual/EREF_RM.pdf

Here is the "The Programming Environments" link:
https://www.nxp.com.cn/docs/en/user-guide/MPCFPE_AD_R1.pdf

As far as I know, the values of interrupts or exceptions above are defined
explicitly in reference manual or the programming environments. Could
you please provide more details about multiple exceptions with the same
interrupts?
