FPSID

This register largely duplicates information held in the MIDR. Arm deprecates use of it.

Configuration

This register is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to FPSID are UNDEFINED.

Implemented only if the implementation includes the Advanced SIMD and floating-point functionality.

Field descriptions

Implementer, bits [31:24]

SW, bit [23]

Subarchitecture, bits [22:16]

SW	Meaning
0b0	The implementation provides a hardware implementation of the floating-point instructions.
0b1	The implementation supports only software emulation of the floating-point instructions.

Subarchitecture version number.

The value of this field is an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED choice of:

Subarchitecture	Meaning
0b0000000	VFPv1 architecture with an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED subarchitecture.
0b0000001	VFPv2 architecture with Common VFP subarchitecture v1.
0b0000010	VFPv3 architecture, or later, with Common VFP subarchitecture v2. The VFP architecture version is indicated by the MVFR0 and MVFR1 registers.
0b0000011	VFPv3 architecture, or later, with Null subarchitecture. The entire floating-point implementation is in hardware, and no software support code is required. The VFP architecture version is indicated by the MVFR0 and MVFR1 registers. This value can be used only by an implementation that does not support the trap enable bits in the FPSCR.
0b0000100	VFPv3 architecture, or later, with Common VFP subarchitecture v3, and support for trap enable bits in FPSCR. The VFP architecture version is indicated by the MVFR0 and MVFR1 registers.

For a subarchitecture designed by Arm the most significant bit of this field, register bit[22], is 0. Values with a most significant bit of 0 that are not listed here are reserved.

When the subarchitecture designer is not Arm, the most significant bit of this field, register bit[22], must be 1. Each implementer must maintain its own list of subarchitectures it has designed, starting at subarchitecture version number 0x40.

In Armv8-A, the permitted values are 0b0000011 and 0b0000100.

Access to this field is RO.
