The DVPRCTX characteristics are:
Data Value Prediction Restriction by Context applies to all Data Value Prediction Resources that predict execution based on information gathered within the target execution context or contexts.
The prediction of the PSTATE.{N,Z,C,V} values is not considered a data value for this purpose.
Data value predictions determined by the actions of code in the target execution context or contexts appearing in program order before the instruction cannot exploitatively control speculative execution occurring after the instruction is complete and synchronized.
This instruction is guaranteed to be complete following a DSB that covers both read and write behavior on the same PE as executed the original restriction instruction, and a subsequent context synchronization event is required to ensure that the effect of the completion of the instructions is synchronized to the current execution.
This instruction does not require the invalidation of prediction structures so long as the behavior described for completion of this instruction is met by the implementation.
On some implementations the instruction is likely to take a significant number of cycles to execute. This instruction is expected to be used very rarely, such as on the roll-over of an ASID or VMID, but should not be used on every context switch.
This instruction is present only when AArch32 is supported and FEAT_SPECRES is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to DVPRCTX are UNDEFINED.
DVPRCTX is a 32-bit System instruction.

Reserved, RES0.
Execution of this instruction applies to all VMIDs or a specified VMID.
| GVMID | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Applies to specified VMID for an EL0 or EL1 target execution context. |
| 0b1 |
Applies to all VMIDs for an EL0 or EL1 target execution context. |
For target execution contexts other than EL0 or EL1, this field is RES0.
If the instruction is executed at EL0 or EL1, this field has an Effective value of 0.
If EL2 is not implemented or not enabled for the target Security state, this field is RES0.
Security State.
| NS | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Secure state. |
| 0b1 |
Non-secure state. |
If the instruction is executed in Non-secure state, this field has an Effective value of 1.
Exception Level. Indicates the Exception level of the target execution context.
| EL | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b00 |
EL0. |
| 0b01 |
EL1. |
| 0b10 |
EL2. |
| 0b11 |
EL3. |
If the instruction is executed at an Exception level lower than the specified level, or is specified to apply to a combination of Exception level and Security state that is not implemented, this instruction is treated as a NOP.
Only applies when bit[27] is 0 and the target execution context is either:
Otherwise this field is RES0.
When the instruction is executed at EL1, this field is treated as the current VMID.
When the instruction is executed at EL0 and (the Effective value of HCR_EL2.{E2H, TGE} is not {1, 1} or ELUsingAArch32(EL2)), this field is treated as the current VMID.
When the instruction is executed at EL0 and the Effective value of HCR_EL2.{E2H, TGE} is {1, 1}, this field is ignored.
If EL2 is not implemented or not enabled for the target Security state, this field is RES0.
Reserved, RES0.
Execution of this instruction applies to all ASIDs or a specified ASID.
| GASID | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Applies to specified ASID for an EL0 target execution context. |
| 0b1 |
Applies to all ASIDs for an EL0 target execution context. |
For target execution contexts other than EL0, this field is RES0.
If the instruction is executed at EL0, this field has an Effective value of 0.
Only applies for an EL0 target execution context and when bit[8] is 0.
Otherwise, this field is RES0.
When the instruction is executed at EL0, this field is treated as the current ASID.
