AMAIR0: Auxiliary Memory Attribute Indirection Register 0

Purpose

When using the Long-descriptor format translation tables for stage 1 translations, provides IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED memory attributes for the memory regions specified by MAIR0.

Configuration

This register is banked between AMAIR0 and AMAIR0_S and AMAIR0_NS.

AArch32 System register AMAIR0 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register AMAIR_EL1[31:0].

This register is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to AMAIR0 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

AMAIR0 is a 32-bit register.

This register has the following instances:

IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED

This register is RES0 in the following cases:

If EL3 is implemented and is using AArch32:

Any IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED memory attributes are additional qualifiers for the memory locations and must not change the architected behavior specified by MAIR0 and MAIR1.

In a typical implementation, AMAIR0 and AMAIR1 split into eight one-byte fields, corresponding to the MAIRn.Attr<n> fields, but the architecture does not require them to do so.

IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED, bits [31:0]

IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing AMAIR0

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