MPAMVPMV_EL2

MPAMVPMV_EL2, MPAM Virtual Partition Mapping Valid Register

The MPAMVPMV_EL2 characteristics are:

Purpose

Valid bits for virtual PARTID mapping entries. Each bit m corresponds to virtual PARTID mapping entry m in the MPAMVPM<n>_EL2 registers where n = m >> 2.

Configuration

This register is present only when (FEAT_MPAMv0p1 is implemented or FEAT_MPAMv1p0 is implemented) and MPAMIDR_EL1.HAS_HCR == '1'. Otherwise, direct accesses to MPAMVPMV_EL2 are UNDEFINED.

This register has no effect if EL2 is not enabled in the current Security state.

Attributes

MPAMVPMV_EL2 is a 64-bit register.

Bits [63:32]

Reserved, RES0.

VPM_V<m>, bit [m], for m = 31 to 0

Contains valid bit for virtual PARTID mapping entry corresponding to virtual PARTID<m>.

The reset behavior of this field is:

When m >= (UInt(MPAMIDR_EL1.VPMR_MAX) + 1) * 4, access to this field is RES0 .
