SMIDR_EL1: Streaming Mode Identification Register

Purpose

Provides additional identification mechanisms for scheduling purposes, for a PE that supports Streaming SVE mode.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_SME is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to SMIDR_EL1 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

SMIDR_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

Bits [63:52]

Reserved, RES0.

Affinity2, bits [51:32]

The most significant 20 bits of the SMCU affinity for this PE, to be used in conjunction with SMIDR_EL1.Affinity.

This field has an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED value.

Access to this field is RO.

Implementer, bits [31:24]

The Implementer code. This field must hold an implementer code that has been assigned by Arm.

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

Arm can assign codes that are not published in this manual. All values not assigned by Arm are reserved and must not be used.

It is not required that this value is the same as the value of MIDR_EL1.Implementer.

Access to this field is RO.

Revision, bits [23:16]

Revision number for the Streaming Mode Compute Unit (SMCU).

This field has an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED value.

Access to this field is RO.

SMPS, bit [15]

Indicates support for Streaming SVE mode execution priority.

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

SMPSMeaning
0b0

Priority control not supported.

0b1

Priority control supported.

Access to this field is RO.

SH, bits [14:13]

Indicates whether the implementation of Streaming SVE mode in this PE is shared with other PEs.

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

SHMeaning
0b00

Refer to SMIDR_EL1.Affinity.

0b01

Reserved.

0b10

The implementation of Streaming SVE mode is not shared with other PEs.

0b11

The implementation of Streaming SVE mode is shared with other PEs.

Access to this field is RO.

Bit [12]

Reserved, RES0.

Affinity, bits [11:0]

The least significant 12 bits of the SMCU affinity for this PE.

If the implementation of Streaming SVE mode is shared, then the concatenated value SMIDR_EL1.{Affinity2,Affinity} identifies which shared SMCU is associated with the PE. The 32-bit value associated with each SMCU is unique within the system as a whole.

This field has an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED value.

Access to this field is RO.

Accessing SMIDR_EL1
