GICR_ISACTIVER0: Interrupt Set-Active Register 0

Purpose

Activates the corresponding SGI or PPI. These registers are used when saving and restoring GIC state.

Configuration

A copy of this register is provided for each Redistributor.

Attributes

GICR_ISACTIVER0 is a 32-bit register.

Set_active_bit<x>, bit [x], for x = 31 to 0

Adds the active state to interrupt number x. Reads and writes have the following behavior:

Set_active_bit<x>	Meaning
0b0	If read, indicates that the corresponding interrupt is not active, and is not active and pending. If written, has no effect.
0b1	If read, indicates that the corresponding interrupt is active, or is active and pending. If written, activates the corresponding interrupt, if the interrupt is not already active. If the interrupt is already active, the write has no effect. After a write of 1 to this bit, a subsequent read of this bit returns 1.

Set_active_bit<x>

Meaning

0b0

If read, indicates that the corresponding interrupt is not active, and is not active and pending.

If written, has no effect.

0b1

If read, indicates that the corresponding interrupt is active, or is active and pending.

If written, activates the corresponding interrupt, if the interrupt is not already active. If the interrupt is already active, the write has no effect.

After a write of 1 to this bit, a subsequent read of this bit returns 1.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a GIC reset, this field resets to '0'.

Accessing GICR_ISACTIVER0

When affinity routing is not enabled for the Security state of an interrupt in GICR_ISACTIVER0, the corresponding bit is RAZ/WI and equivalent functionality is provided by GICD_ISACTIVER<n> with n=0.

This register only applies to SGIs (bits [15:0]) and PPIs (bits [31:16]). For SPIs, this functionality is provided by GICD_ISACTIVER<n>.

When GICD_CTLR.DS == 0, bits corresponding to Secure SGIs and PPIs are RAZ/WI to Non-secure accesses.

The effect of a write must be visible in finite time. Reading back the written value from either the Set-Active or Clear-Active registers guarantees that a deactivate from a CPU interface Ordered-after the read, will observe the effects of the write on the Active state of the interrupt.

GICR_ISACTIVER0 can be accessed through the memory-mapped interfaces:

Component	Frame	Offset	Instance
GIC Redistributor	SGI_base	0x0300	GICR_ISACTIVER0

Accesses to this register are RW.
