LORegion Start Address (EL1)
Indicates whether the current LORegion descriptor selected by LORC_EL1.DS is enabled, and holds the physical address of the start of the LORegion.
This register is present only when FEAT_LOR is implemented and FEAT_AA64 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to LORSA_EL1 are UNDEFINED.
This register is RES0 if any of the following apply:
LORSA_EL1 is a 64-bit register.
