FCSEIDR

FCSEIDR, FCSE Process ID register

The FCSEIDR characteristics are:

Purpose

Identifies whether the Fast Context Switch Extension (FCSE) is implemented.

From Armv8.0, the FCSE is not implemented, so this register is RAZ/WI. Software can access this register to determine that the implementation does not include the FCSE.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_AA32EL1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to FCSEIDR are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

FCSEIDR is a 32-bit register.

Accessing FCSEIDR

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

MRC{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
