HACR_EL2, Hypervisor Auxiliary Control Register

The HACR_EL2 characteristics are:

Purpose

Controls trapping to EL2 of IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED aspects of EL1 or EL0 operation.

Note

Arm recommends that the values in this register do not cause unnecessary traps to EL2 when the Effective value of HCR_EL2.{E2H, TGE} == {1, 1}.

Configuration

AArch64 System register HACR_EL2 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register HACR[31:0].

If EL2 is not implemented, this register is RES0 from EL3.

This register has no effect if EL2 is not enabled in the current Security state.

Attributes

HACR_EL2 is a 64-bit register.

Accessing HACR_EL2

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:

MRS <Xt>, HACR_EL2

if PSTATE.EL == EL0 then UNDEFINED; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL1 then if EffectiveHCR_EL2_NVx() IN {'xx1'} then AArch64.SystemAccessTrap(EL2, 0x18); else UNDEFINED; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL2 then X[t, 64] = HACR_EL2; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL3 then X[t, 64] = HACR_EL2;

MSR HACR_EL2, <Xt>
