OSLSR_EL1

OSLSR_EL1, OS Lock Status Register

The OSLSR_EL1 characteristics are:

Purpose

Provides the status of the OS Lock.

Configuration

AArch64 System register OSLSR_EL1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register DBGOSLSR[31:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_AA64 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to OSLSR_EL1 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

OSLSR_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

Bits [63:4]

Reserved, RES0.

OSLM, bits [3, 0]

OS Lock model implemented. Identifies the form of OS save and restore mechanism implemented.

The value of this field is an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED choice of:

OSLMMeaning
0b00

OS Lock not implemented.

0b10

OS Lock implemented.

All other values are reserved. In an Armv8 implementation the value 0b00 is not permitted.

The OSLM field is split as follows:

Access to this field is RO.

nTT, bit [2]

Not 32-bit access. This bit is always RAZ. It indicates that a 32-bit access is needed to write the key to the OS Lock Access Register.

This field has an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED value.

Access to this field is RO.

OSLK, bit [1]

OS Lock Status.

OSLKMeaning
0b0

OS Lock unlocked.

0b1

OS Lock locked.

The OS Lock is locked and unlocked by writing to the OS Lock Access Register.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing OSLSR_EL1

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