The SMCR_EL2 characteristics are:
This register controls aspects of Streaming SVE that are visible at Exception levels EL2, EL1, and EL0.
This register is present only when FEAT_SME is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to SMCR_EL2 are UNDEFINED.
This register has no effect if the PE is not in Streaming SVE mode, or if EL2 is not enabled in the current Security state.
If EL2 is not implemented, this register is RES0 from EL3.
SMCR_EL2 is a 64-bit register.

Reserved, RES0.
Controls whether execution of an A64 instruction is considered legal when the PE is in Streaming SVE mode.
| FA64 | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
This control does not cause any instruction to be treated as legal in Streaming SVE mode. |
| 0b1 |
This control causes all implemented A64 instructions to be treated as legal in Streaming SVE mode at EL2, if they are treated as legal at EL3. |
Arm recommends that portable SME software should not rely on this optional feature, and that operating systems should provide a means to test for compliance with this recommendation.
The reset behavior of this field is:
Reserved, RES0.
Traps execution at EL2, EL1, and EL0 of the LDR, LUTI2, LUTI4, MOVT, STR, and ZERO instructions that access the ZT0 register to EL2, when EL2 is enabled in the current Security state.
The exception is reported using ESR_EL2.EC value 0x1D, with an ISS code of 0x0000004, at a lower priority than a trap due to PSTATE.SM or PSTATE.ZA.
| EZT0 | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
This control causes execution of these instructions at EL2, EL1, and EL0 to be trapped. |
| 0b1 |
This control does not cause execution of any instruction to be trapped. |
Changes to this field only affect whether instructions that access ZT0 are trapped. They do not affect the contents of ZT0, which remain valid so long as PSTATE.ZA is 1.
The reset behavior of this field is:
Reserved, RES0.
Reserved, RES0.
Reserved, RAZ/WI.
Requests an Effective Streaming SVE vector length (SVL) at EL2 of (LEN+1)*128 bits. This field also defines the Effective Streaming SVE vector length at EL0 when the Effective value of HCR_EL2.{E2H, TGE} is {1, 1}.
The Streaming SVE vector length can be any power of two from 128 bits to 2048 bits inclusive. An implementation can support any subset of the architecturally permitted lengths.
When the PE is in Streaming SVE mode, the Effective SVE vector length (VL) is equal to SVL.
When FEAT_SVE is implemented, and the PE is not in Streaming SVE mode, VL is equal to the Effective Non-streaming SVE vector length. See ZCR_EL2.
For all purposes other than returning the result of a direct read of SMCR_EL2, the PE selects the Effective Streaming SVE vector length by performing checks in the following order:
If the requested length is less than the minimum implemented Streaming SVE vector length, then the Effective length is the minimum implemented Streaming SVE vector length.
If EL3 is implemented and the requested length is greater than the Effective length at EL3, then the Effective length at EL3 is used.
Otherwise, the Effective length is the highest supported Streaming SVE vector length that is less than or equal to the requested length.
An indirect read of SMCR_EL2.LEN appears to occur in program order relative to a direct write of the same register, without the need for explicit synchronization.
The reset behavior of this field is:
When the Effective value of HCR_EL2.E2H is 1, without explicit synchronization, accesses from EL2 using the accessor name SMCR_EL2 or SMCR_EL1 are not guaranteed to be ordered with respect to accesses using the other accessor name.
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
