Bits[9:8] in Table descriptors are ignored by hardware. The minimum value of VTCR_EL2.T0SZ is 16. Any memory access using a smaller value generates a stage 2 level 0 translation table fault.

0b1	Bits[49:48] of translation descriptors hold output address[49:48]. Bits[9:8] in translation descriptors hold output address[51:50]. The shareability information of Block and Page descriptors for cacheable locations is determined by VTCR_EL2.SH0. The minimum value of VTCR_EL2.T0SZ is 12. Any memory access using a smaller value generates a stage 2 level 0 translation table fault. The minimum value of VSTCR_EL2.T0SZ is 12. Any memory access using a smaller value generates a stage 2 level 0 translation table fault. Note As FEAT_LPA must be implemented if VTCR_EL2.DS == 1, the minimum values of VTCR_EL2.T0SZ and VSTCR_EL2.T0SZ are 12, as determined by that extension. For the TLBI range instructions affecting IPA, the format of the argument is changed so that bits[36:0] hold BaseADDR[52:16]. For the 4KB translation granule, bits[15:12] of BaseADDR are treated as 0000. For the 16KB translation granule, bits[15:14] of BaseADDR are treated as 00. Note This forces alignment of the ranges used by the TLBI range instructions.

The minimum value of VSTCR_EL2.T0SZ is 12. Any memory access using a smaller value generates a stage 2 level 0 translation table fault.

Note

For the TLBI range instructions affecting IPA, the format of the argument is changed so that bits[36:0] hold BaseADDR[52:16]. For the 4KB translation granule, bits[15:12] of BaseADDR are treated as 0000. For the 16KB translation granule, bits[15:14] of BaseADDR are treated as 00.

All other values are reserved.

The reserved values behave in the same way as the 0b101 or 0b110 encoding, but software must not rely on this property as the behavior of the reserved values might change in a future revision of the architecture.

If the translation granule is not 64KB and FEAT_LPA2 is not implemented, the value 0b110 is treated as reserved.

It is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether an implementation that does not implement FEAT_LPA supports setting the value of 0b110 for the 64KB translation granule size or whether setting this value behaves as the 0b101 encoding.

In an implementation that supports 52-bit PAs, if the value of this field is not 0b110 or a value treated as 0b110, then bits[51:48] of every translation table base address for the stage of translation controlled by VTCR_EL2 are 0b0000.

TG0, bits [15:14]

Granule size for the VTTBR_EL2.

TG0	Meaning

Other values are reserved.

If FEAT_GTG is implemented, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.{TGran4_2, TGran16_2, TGran64_2} indicate which granule sizes are supported for stage 2 translation.

If FEAT_GTG is not implemented, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.{TGran4, TGran16, TGran64} indicate which granule sizes are supported.

If the value is programmed to either a reserved value or a size that has not been implemented, then the hardware will treat the field as if it has been programmed to an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED choice of the sizes that has been implemented for all purposes other than the value read back from this register.

It is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether the value read back is the value programmed or the value that corresponds to the size chosen.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

SH0, bits [13:12]

0b11	Inner Shareable.

Other values are reserved. The effect of programming this field to a Reserved value is that behavior is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE.

On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

ORGN0, bits [11:10]

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

When FEAT_TTST is implemented and (FEAT_D128 is not implemented or VTCR_EL2.D128 == 0):

If FEAT_LPA2 is implemented, the combination of VTCR_EL2.SL0 == 01 and VTCR_EL2.SL2 == 1 is reserved. If VTCR_EL2.TG0 is 0b10 (16KB granule) or 0b01 (64KB granule), start at level 2.

If FEAT_LPA2 is implemented, the combination of VTCR_EL2.SL0 == 10 and VTCR_EL2.SL2 == 1 is reserved. If VTCR_EL2.TG0 is 0b10 (16KB granule) or 0b01 (64KB granule), start at level 1.
0b11	If VTCR_EL2.TG0 is 0b00 (4KB granule): If FEAT_LPA2 is not implemented, start at level 3. If FEAT_LPA2 is implemented and VTCR_EL2.SL2 is 0b0, start at level 3. If FEAT_LPA2 is implemented, the combination of VTCR_EL2.SL0 == 11 and VTCR_EL2.SL2 == 1 is reserved. If VTCR_EL2.TG0 is 0b10 (16KB granule) and FEAT_LPA2 is implemented, start at level 0.

If this field is programmed to a value that is not consistent with the programming of VTCR_EL2.T0SZ, then a stage 2 level 0 Translation fault is generated.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

When FEAT_TTST is not implemented and (FEAT_D128 is not implemented or VTCR_EL2.D128 == 0):

Starting level of the stage 2 translation lookup, controlled by VTCR_EL2. The meaning of this field depends on the value of VTCR_EL2.TG0.

All other values are reserved. If this field is programmed to a reserved value, or to a value that is not consistent with the programming of VTCR_EL2.T0SZ, then a stage 2 level 0 Translation fault is generated.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

Otherwise:

T0SZ, bits [5:0]

The size offset of the memory region addressed by VTTBR_EL2. The region size is 2^(64-T0SZ) bytes.

The maximum and minimum possible values for T0SZ depend on the level of translation table and the memory translation granule size, as described in 'The AArch64 Virtual Memory System Architecture'.

If this field is programmed to a value that is not consistent with the programming of SL0, then a stage 2 level 0 Translation fault is generated.

Note

For the 16KB translation granule, if FEAT_LPA2 is implemented and this field is less than 17, the translation table walk begins with a level 0 initial lookup.

The reset behavior of this field is:
