ICH_PPI_DVIR<n>_EL2, n = 0 - 1

Interrupt Controller PPI Direct-inject Virtual Interrupt Registers

Controls whether Pending physical PPIs are directly injected as virtual PPIs to the Virtual Interrupt Domain.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_GCIE is implemented, (EL2 is implemented or EL3 is implemented), and FEAT_AA64 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to ICH_PPI_DVIR<n>_EL2 are UNDEFINED.

If EL2 is not implemented, this register is RES0 from EL3.

Attributes

ICH_PPI_DVIR<n>_EL2 is a 64-bit register.

DVI<x>, bit [x], for x = 63 to 0:

Controls whether physical PPI <(n * 64) + x> is directly injected to a virtual PPI in the Virtual Interrupt Domain.

DVI<x>Meaning
0b0

The physical PPI is not directly injected as a virtual PPI.

0b1

The physical PPI is directly injected as a virtual PPI.

The Effective value of DVI<(n * 64) + x> is 0 if any of the following are true:

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing this field has the following behavior:

Access Instructions

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