Interrupt Controller Physical Interrupt Priority Control Register (EL1)
Controls the Physical priority mask for the Non-secure, Realm, and Secure Interrupt Domains.
This register is banked between ICC_PCR_EL1 and ICC_PCR_EL1_NS and ICC_PCR_EL1_RL and ICC_PCR_EL1_S.
This register is present only when FEAT_GCIE is implemented and FEAT_AA64 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to ICC_PCR_EL1 are UNDEFINED.
Direct accesses at EL3 use the register copy selected based on the following:
When the Effective value of SCR_EL3.NS is 0, direct accesses use the Secure banked copy.
When the Effective value of SCR_EL3.{NS,NSE} is {1,1}, direct accesses use the Realm banked copy.
Otherwise, direct accesses use the Non-secure banked copy.
ICC_PCR_EL1 is a 64-bit register.
This register has the following instances:
| 63 | 62 | 61 | 60 | 59 | 58 | 57 | 56 | 55 | 54 | 53 | 52 | 51 | 50 | 49 | 48 | 47 | 46 | 45 | 44 | 43 | 42 | 41 | 40 | 39 | 38 | 37 | 36 | 35 | 34 | 33 | 32 |
