MVFR2_EL1

Describes the features provided by the AArch32 Advanced SIMD and floating-point implementation.

For general information about the interpretation of the ID registers, see 'Principles of the ID scheme for fields in ID registers'.

Configuration

AArch64 System register MVFR2_EL1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register MVFR2[31:0].

In an implementation where at least one Exception level supports execution in AArch32 state, but there is no support for Advanced SIMD and floating-point operation, this register is RAZ.

Attributes

Field descriptions

When AArch32 is supported:

Bits [63:8]

FPMisc, bits [7:4]

Indicates whether the floating-point implementation provides support for miscellaneous VFP features.

FPMisc	Meaning
0b0000	Not implemented, or no support for miscellaneous features.
0b0001	Support for Floating-point selection.
0b0010	As 0b0001, and Floating-point Conversion to Integer with Directed Rounding modes.
0b0011	As 0b0010, and Floating-point Round to Integer Floating-point.
0b0100	As 0b0011, and Floating-point MaxNum and MinNum.

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A, the permitted values are 0b0000 and 0b0100.

SIMDMisc, bits [3:0]

Indicates whether the Advanced SIMD implementation provides support for miscellaneous Advanced SIMD features.

SIMDMisc	Meaning
0b0000	Not implemented, or no support for miscellaneous features.
0b0001	Floating-point Conversion to Integer with Directed Rounding modes.
0b0010	As 0b0001, and Floating-point Round to Integer Floating-point.
0b0011	As 0b0010, and Floating-point MaxNum and MinNum.

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A, the permitted values are 0b0000 and 0b0011.

Otherwise:

Bits [63:0]

Accessing MVFR2_EL1

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

MRS <Xt>, MVFR2_EL1

op0	op1	CRn	CRm	op2
0b11	0b000	0b0000	0b0011	0b010

if PSTATE.EL == EL0 then if IsFeatureImplemented(FEAT_IDST) then if EL2Enabled() && HCR_EL2.TGE == '1' then AArch64.SystemAccessTrap(EL2, 0x18); else AArch64.SystemAccessTrap(EL1, 0x18); else UNDEFINED; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL1 then if EL2Enabled() && HCR_EL2.TID3 == '1' then AArch64.SystemAccessTrap(EL2, 0x18); else X[t, 64] = MVFR2_EL1; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL2 then X[t, 64] = MVFR2_EL1; elsif PSTATE.EL == EL3 then X[t, 64] = MVFR2_EL1;
